'Music was the force of life against death'

Rihab Azar is a Syrian oud player, Yasmin Kadi is a Sierra Leonean Afrobeat singer and Tabrae is an underground hip-hop artist from Iran - all three were forced to leave their home countries fearing for their safety. They came together for a Cultural Frontline special not only to share their experiences but also to tell their collective story in a song they created. Here Rihab explains what music means to her.
