Catalina Alvarez and Daniel Fishkin: Modos de Transporte: Bois de Rose
Modos de Transporte is a multilingual travel series. In the pilot episode, “Bois de Rose” the host takes a high speed rail train from Paris to Bordeaux and there discovers the studio of Jose Le Piez, builder of “abrassons,” a type of friction drum sculpted from trees that sings with the simple caress of a hand.
