Polish Connections at Uproot Festival

Rob Cowan presents a personal selection of music, including Smetana's Czech Song, plus Brahms, Bach from pianist Friedrich Gulda and a piece by Edward Gregson.

Live from Hull Truck Theatre, Kathryn Tickell introduces a concert with the Warsaw Village Band plus Fay Hield, as part of Radio 3's Uproot festival for Hull 2017.

'Polish Connections' reflects Hull's wider international links, inspired by Hull's vibrant Polish community, and its twin-town links with Poland. The Warsaw Village Band's music mixes folk, roots, punk, ethno and trance - contemporary music inspired by Poland's rural traditions. To start, a special guest performance from Yorkshire folk artist Fay Hield, and in the interval, Kathryn Tickell meets Hull's Polish community.
