大象传媒 at the Quay

Petroc Trelawny begins Radio 3's programmes from Glasgow as part of the 大象传媒's cultural celebration of the 2014 Commonwealth Games. With guests, live music and listener requests.

Petroc Trelawny kicks off Radio 3's presence in Glasgow as part of the 大象传媒's cultural celebration of the 2014 Commonwealth Games. Broadcasting live from the banks of the Clyde there'll be guests, live music and listener requests.

As well as Breakfast in Glasgow, In Tune and World on 3 will be broadcasting from the pop up festival site, 大象传媒 at the Quay, outside 大象传媒 Scotland's riverside headquarters at Pacific Quay in Glasgow as part of the Commonwealth Games celebrations.

At 4.30, Sean Rafferty presents a special edition of In Tune where guests include Scottish folk band Breabach, perform live and talk about their Commonwealth project to explore links between Celtic, Aboriginal and Maori cultures through language, contemporary music and dance.
There's more live music from acclaimed jazz pianist Gwilym Simcock, in Glasgow for the New Music Biennial. Plus, Sean is joined by Liz Lochhead, award-winning poet, playright and Scots Makar - national poet.

And at 11.00 this evening, Lopa Kothari presents a special edition of World Routes - recorded earlier in the day on the stage at Pacific Quay - with the culmination of World on 3's 35 part Commonwealth Connections series. With music from bands from across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. There's Edinburgh-based Shooglenifty, originators of 'acid-croft'; 9 Bach, whose name can be roughly translated as 'loveable grandmother', are fronted by the Welsh vocals of Lisa Jen; uilleann pipes player Jarlath Henderson comes from Dungannon, County Tyrone - he performs with Scottish bagpiper Ross Ainslie; and following the final Commonwealth Connections Heritage Track from Belize, England's Bellowhead bring their big brassy sound to the 大象传媒's stage by the River Clyde.
