Description
On this week's show Glyn Phillips hosts a very diverse selection of music from Scotland, Nepal, Korea, Brazil, Angola, Iran, Greece, Quebec, Belgium, Ethiopia, Ukraine, Cuba, US and English-speaking Colombia (yes, you heard right) amongst others!
Check out Angola's Waldemar Bastos, the Persian love songs of Alirezah Gorbani, the ethiodubjazz of Black Flower and Qwanqwa, new folk from Scotland's Talisk, Quebec's MAZ and Nepal's Night, the Colombian calypso of Elkin Robinson, the funky afrohouse of Gato Preto, the tsibitsi rembetiko of Dimitris Mystakidis, the flute-driven fusions of Cuba's La Dame Blanche, Barda's ethnofolklore remixes, the sublime compositions of Korea's Park Jiha, and the dark freak cabaret of Ukraine's Dakh Daughters.
There are also new releases from Cuban charanga outfit Ellasón and New York fiddler Chris Murphy - and we pay tribute to the late Luiz Melodia of Brazil in a duet with Flavia Bittencourt.
Quite a show! Enjoy!
