Show #258 Monday 27-10-08

Vardos

This show will have an Eastern European, Balkan, Gypsy, Hungarian, Transylvanian and Romanian feel to it.

We'll have a chat with the trio known as VARDOS, who play gypsy and traditional music learnt during trips to Hungary and Romania.

In addition we'll introduce you to the seprewa, a Ghanaian instrument which is a cousin to the kora from Mali.

Show #257 Monday 20-10-08

JOY grill & bar, Jerusalem

Tonight, we're going to look at music released on albums with the word "café" somewhere included in the title of the album. Whether you'd actually hear this world music played in many of the cafés in the countries visited tonight is debatable. However, when you're relaxing with a flat white coffee, a short black, a latté a green, black or chai tea, a glass of chardy, red, white or rosé wine, perhaps the background music is not that important. The company and the conversation definitely is though.
