Hosted ByDavid Dalle
Date2:00 PM on May. 10th, 2012
Welcome to today's show! A lot of music from Azerbaijan in the first hour focused on the Kamancha of Imamyar Hasanov from his recent album with Persian percussionist Pejman Hadadi. Adding in the powerful vocals of Alim Qasimov and his daughter Fergana and other Azeri musicians. The 2nd half of the show will be guided somewhat by the sound of the bowed Kamancha.

There was an ad playing on CKCU recently which featured some music I recognized, I knew it from a soundtrack, but I couldn't place the film or composer. I finally found it, a joyful, infectious tune by Hans Zimmer for the film True Romance.
