Global A Go-Go presents:

Wednesday November 28, 3:00-5:00 PM

Mauritania (flag pictured above) celebrates its 58th independence day on Wednesday.  This large (about the same size as Egypt), sparsely populated (4.3 million people, or less than half the count of Cairo), poor (140th in the world in cost-of-living-adjusted GDP per person) country lies 90 percent within the Sahara Desert.

Mauritania’s music reflects its status as the crossroads of North and West Africa.  You’ll hear a set of that music on this week’s program, and you’ll be able to clearly distinguish Arab, Berber and West African elements for yourself.  It’s a rare opportunity to drill down into the musical culture of an under-recognized, extremely interesting country.

Also this week: the greatest band ever to come out of Mopti, the Venice of Mali; folk-rock from both sides of the Mediterranean; and Latin dance-floor fillers from the 50s, 60s and 70s.
