The following discussion presents an anthropological approach on issues of culture and music concerning the Sikh community in Tavros. In particular, the concept of “Seva” is revealed through fieldwork as a crucial idea which affects the community’s musical performance. Moreover, I examine the importance of “interview” as a methodological approach on the concept of “Seva”. In this matter, I argue that “interview”, as “seva”, provides a unique space, upon which “orality”, both in verbal and sonic terms, operates as a medium through which the past is regenerated into the present. Meanwhile, this dialogue between text and context reveals the importance of individual narratives and their contribution to the formation of a sense of community.
