Week 37 (#2051)
The stream of new music is ever-flowing. Fiona Ritchie cups her hands under the flow to share some fresh sounds this week with Luke Jackson and more. The program also includes acclaimed fiddler Paul Anderson with music from Aberdeenshire and the area around Balmoral Castle, where Queen Elizabeth died this month. We debut a new poem by the Scottish national poet, The Makar, in honor of the late Queen.
