Dancing ghosts and remixed frogs
Join Verity Sharp for another ear-opening journey, including music made in a haunted Swiss sanatorium, Musique Mandingue from Mali and remixed recordings of North American Frogs.
Final boarding call for another ear-opening musical journey into the furthest reaches of sound with your captain, Verity Sharp. Tonight鈥檚 voyage will take us to a haunted sanatorium in the mountains of Switzerland, where Polish pianist and composer Hania Rani spent two months writing songs for the ghosts she imagined there. We鈥檒l traverse into the territory of North American frogs, tugboats, insects and more with electronic duo Matmos鈥檚 latest release, a musique concr猫te collage constructed entirely from the 鈥榥on-musical鈥 recordings released by Smithsonian Folkways Records in the mid-20th century. Plus a trip to Mali and some Musique Mandingue courtesy of Guinean singer and guitarist Leon Ke茂ta, as well as an imaginary world of daydreams created by the Dutch duo Voice Actor.
