Svaneti polyphony and Guria yodeling

Available for over a year

Lucy Duran continues her musical journey through Georgia. She travels to the highest and remotest part of Europe, Svaneti. An area of extraordinary natural beauty, it's also infamous for its banditry and war-lording, as well as being home to some of the world's oldest music. With the help of the Georgian military, the programme makes rare location recordings of these wild songs.
