In this broadcast, we pay homage to the great Congolese maestro PAPA WEMBA, who passed away on Sat., April 23 quite suddenly and far too soon. By no means an encyclopedic collection of his works, this will be a simple offering of favorites from the archives, along with information culled from album liner notes and poignant commentary. An excursion of sound and rhythm where you'll encounter the music of established and emerging artists, both signed and unsigned, on the international music scene. For the avid globe-hopper and armchair traveler alike. You might want to pack a map and a sandwich. Broadcast live from the Carnegie Room of the Catskill Library. Hosted by Neva E. Wartell.
