“Through music you can understand the soul of a nation - so many nuances, so many colours…” - Nurlanbek Nyshanov
From vintage ethnographic recordings to the latest chart-topping releases, United World Radio brings you an eclectic mix of music from around the globe. Focused around a specific region or theme, each show presents some of the most fascinating sounds around juxtaposed with detailed background information, exclusive interviews and live performances.
United World Radio is presented by me, Hedd Thomas. I believe passionately in the power of music to bring people together across cultural, political and geographical divides. Through performing, composing, presenting and writing, I aim to travel and collect the precious sounds of our world in order to share them with others and preserve them for future generations to enjoy.
