Sounds from the Celtic world and far beyond, in a mix including folk, blues, gospel and world music.

World on 3 has moved to a new regular Friday night slot on Radio 3. The three presenters - Charlie Gillett, Lopa Kothari and Mary Ann Kennedy - continue to bring their particular expertise and tastes to the programme, presenting new CDs and classic recordings of world music, folk, blues, gospel and much much more.
Together with studio sessions and concert recordings, and now with the occasional recording contributed by listeners, World on 3 promises some of the most enticing sounds from across the globe.
