Description
On November's edition of WorldBeatUK, Brum Radio's world music enthusiast Glyn Phillips starts in Hawaii but ends up in Central Asia! On the way, he takes in Dominican bachata, Malian reggae, Canadian Klezmer, Sudanese jazz, Korean minyo, Ugandan hiphop, Chinese Pudong, American psych-folk and Kazakh love songs!
There's a decided emphasis towards the continents of Africa and Asia on this episode with a look at some of the last maestros of the Zimbabwean matepe mbira, an exuberant Beninese band made up of girls between 11-17, a taster of Korean music to flag up the K-Music 2020 festival and an album with a green, planet-saving message from Madagascar.
There are international collaborations between Germany and Korea, France and Korea, Germany and Morocco, and a three-way split between Armenia, Georgia and Anatolia, as well as UK Indian fusion, Taiwanese experimental fusions and a new album of global fusion!
@WorldBeatUK - Mondays at 8pm on Brum Radio!
