#642 — Circling the Mediterranean and nearby

Listen back to recent programs

Program 642
Bijan Chemirani, Stelios Petrakis and Efrén López
Broadcast

Musical connections to the Iberian Pensinsula and the Mediterranean sea, with lots of traditional sounds and acoustic instruments, but some unusual twists.  There are also connections to Bill Laswell through his production credits working separately with Simon Shaheen, Nicky Skopelitis and a strange Moroccan collective.

Later, some African music from Australia and France.
