NL is definitely at his best with this, as well as his expertise he has a barely supressed passion which comes across - I'd be quite happy for him to do a year long investigation into the music of Japan, other cities, out into the country, the past, the present, the future; but of course the BBC will rush past to the next novelty.
Better enjoy whilst we can... gomen'nasai

I have been listening a bit to Nick Luscombe's Late Junction recently and have been enjoying it.

I especially liked in this edition the new piece composed by Sugawara Kuniyoshi for the World Shakuhachi Festival.

On the jazz side, there is also a nice track from recently departed Tomasz Stanko.

In contrast to the music of Japan, I found NL's programme on Chinese music of sociological interest only.

It was a tough listen, V. Mrs C came through at one point with an even more bemused than usual look on her face asking, 'Just what are you listening to?'...it was hard to answer. Enjoyed the Xiao He track.

Remind me to show you where the OFF switch is JC. This isn't compulsory - beyond and above the call of duty.

I know, but I had been/ might still have been drinking beer - lowers the immune system. By the way, I stuck the Xiao He track you know where, Global. That last one you added is a topper.
