Verity Sharp
A reflection on the Radio 4 three-part documentary 'Black Music In Europe', which challenges the notion that black popular music arrived in Europe with the Empire Windrush in 1948.
A history lesson, as brought to you by your favourite experimental music programme. Tonight we reflect on the Radio 4 three-part documentary 'Black Music In Europe', which challenges the notion that black popular music arrived in Europe with the Empire Windrush in 1948.
Also tonight: fascination aplenty in the form of the piano playing of V铆kingur 脫laffson; the electroacoustic music of D. Nikos Stavropoulos; the voice of Nell N铆 Chr贸n铆n; the bell crafting of Marcus Vergette; and Jennifer Veillerobe's amazing sonic experiments using sparkling water and plastic bottles.
Produced by Jack Howson for Reduced Listening.
