This Island Earth
Sunday May 15th, 2016 with David Dalle
The Manganiyar Seduction; Lubomyr Melnyk; Thomas Mapfumo; Misia; Chucho Valdes; Kaoru Watanabe; Kandia Kouyate and more
Welcome to my guest spot on This Island Earth. Always very self-indulgent for me as I joyfully build the show from many many favourites! Starting today with an incredible live recording from Chucho Valdes with wonderfully rich rythmic piano chords you could sink your teeth into, followed by one of the most stunning voices from Portugal. We will also hear some Roma brass, music from Mali, Morocco, Egypt, Zimbabwe, Iran, Japan and more!
The centrepiece of the show will be a unique live recording, "The Manganiyar Seduction", an hour long performance based on a poem from Sufi Bulleh Shah with 14 singers and 25 instrumentalists from Rajasthan, India. This performance piece is completely unique in having so many traditional musicians playing together. A wonderful, passionate feast for the ears and the soul!
Listen to my regular show Thursday's 2-4pm, over 2 years of programming available on-demand!
