Magazine for folk to world music no. 134
This new episode of New Folk Sounds on Air starts off happy and ends a little crazy. We browse through edition 134 of the Dutch music magazine New Folk Sounds for folk, roots and world music. Three big articles, including a good story about Carel Kraaijenhof, an interesting description of the Masterpiece Rosenfole (Agnes Buen Garnes & Jan Garbarek) and a performance by Alasdair Roberts, contemporary folky from Scotland. That is what you can expect from this edition.
All this is supplemented with stories about and interviews with Ben Bedford, Marjolein Meijers, the oldeset Dutch folk group Folkcorn, dialect singer Gurbe Douwstra, Janos Koolen and Flemish songwriter Lieven Tavernier. We play all the recommended CDs and a selection of the vast collection of the rest of the sound recording media. On top of that, we rouse your interest for participation in a proper folk canon of the Netherlands…
