Description
On May's WorldBeatUK, Glyn furtles around in Latvian forests, Indian Hills, Comorian islands and Chinese lakes and comes up with all manner of little heard sounds and songs!
There's beautiful female voices from Turkey's Olcay Bayir, Brazil's Aiace, and Catalunya's Carola Ortiz as well as music from Panamian/Colombian folk duo Calle Sur, English folk duos Alden and Patterson, and Honey and the Bear, Scottish folksters Gnoss, Finnish accordionist Pertulla, and Malian kora maestro Ballaké Sissoko.
There's also loads of interesting fusions, collaborations and fascinating recording projects - from the Indo-Welsh adventures of the Khasi-Cymru Collective, the decade-long global sampling project of Addictive TV, the in-situ, au naturel recordings of Latvian choir Saucejas, the field recordings of little-heard instruments from the Islands of the Moon and the equally rarely heard ethnic groups of China's Yunnan province. And that's not everything either - click the links to hear the lot!
