Coltrane Day: Trane Live

Showcasing sounds from Coltrane's prolific touring career, including recordings from his final international tour in Japan, and his final live performance at the Olatunji Centre of African Culture in Harlem.

Field Recordings Folk

An hour of maritime folk music popularised during the age of commercial sail, from the late sixteenth up until the mid nineteenth century. Featuring shanties, the long and rhythmic work songs sung by crewmembers of packet ships, alongside the more up-beat forebitters or fo'c'sle songs, more often sung with instrumental accompaniment and reserved for off-duty hours.
