In 2006, Dobbs was invited by the Foundation for Culture and a Civil Society (FCCS) to
participate in the New Year’s Music Festival held in Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan. The biggest
musical event in Afghanistan with musicians from Pakistan, Iran, India, Tajikistan and
Afghanistan participating, the festival was started by the FCCS started in 2003 after the fall of
the Taliban, which had prohibited music of any kind. In 2007, WADAN began hosting Dobbs’
performances in schools, orphanages, rehabilitation centers and government training
workshops, all supporting the rebuilding effort in Afghanistan. BWV began a “Music for
Afghanistan” campaign collecting instruments and sheet music to donate to the High School
of the Artists, the only school of its kind in Afghanistan.
