about

Music of medieval Spain and Andalusian flamenco; folkloric traditions of the Maghreb, the Nile, Syria and Iraq, and the countryside of Anatolia; music of the courts of the Ottomans, and the alleys of Istanbul.

A journey of thousands of miles and many centuries, into the heart of these remarkable musical traditions.

Tim performs on more than 20 instruments, and is joined by guests Shira Kammen, Kit Higginson, MC Rai, Stephen Bell, Gari Hegedus, Peter Jaques, and Briana Waters.
