Traditional sounds from Haiti
Kathryn Tickell with new music from around the world, including a new take on Haiti's traditions.
Kathryn Tickell is joined by Haitian-Canadian musician Wesli, whose new album 'Tradisyon' explores the roots music of Haiti, from vodou-inspired drumming to popular accordion songs. Plus new tracks from across the globe, including an album of Indian ragas, yoiking from Norway and a folk song from Yorkshire. The Classic Artist comes from the golden age of Ivorian music - 1980s star Ernesto Djédjé mixed the chants of the Bété people with the popular music of the period to create the Ziglibithy style.
