Thread Name: BBC Radio 4:Torres Strait music tonight
Subject: BBC Radio 4:Torres Strait music tonight
8PM tonight(Sat July 9) there is a very interesting looking programme on. 1899 wax cylinder recordings of Torres Strait Island music(between Australia and Papua New Guinea). You dont hear a lot of 100 year old folk recordings, this sounds an amazing opportunity. Unfortunately, I shall miss it, as I am playing with the Boat Band at the Red Lion, Malpas, Cheshire(inserting a little advert into this public service announcement).
