THE NTS BREAKFAST SHOW W/ FLO & NYRON HIGOR

Flo is joined by Brazilian musician Nyron Higor, playing tracks from his new self-titled album. Born in Maceió, Higor’s latest work is rooted in the traditions of Northeastern Brazilian music and golden-era MPB.

IN FOCUS: ZAKIR HUSSAIN

Two hours of exploratory Indian classical sounds from legendary tabla player and percussionist Zakir Hussain, selected by Arushi Jain. "When Zakir Hussain died last December, the world lost not only an immensely talented tabla player and percussionist, arguably the greatest of his generation, but also an extraordinary philosopher of sound. Via his band Shanti, as well as his many collaborations with artists like George Harrison, The Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart, Ravi Shankar, Herbie Hancock, Shivkumar Sharma Béla Fleck, Charles Lloyd, and Yo-Yo Ma, Hussain merged North and South Indian music as well as jazz, Western classical, and tabla to extraordinary effect. His music was effervescent, curious and dynamic." - Arushi
