Contemporary and classical tracks from around the world with Mark Coles.

This week Mark Coles presents an all-female World of Music. Mixing classic and new tracks from around the world, there are tunes from India - the Bollywood playback queen, Asha Bhosle, something new and something old from South Africa with Thandiswa and Miriam Makeba, a duet from English folk duo Eliza Carthy and Norma Waterson, and a modern Native American tune from Ulali. There's a new twist to Mark's favourites from The Balkans and a rather laidback tango from Turkey.
