Sunday, April 06, 2008

Home to the "Samba School" made famous by Rio de Janeiro's Carnevale, the neighborhood of Rocinha is known for its vibrant cultural life. We hear a musical impression and tribute from none other than Philip Glass, in his "Days and Nights in Rocinha." Also tonight, music by Terry Riley, Gerald Finzi, and Carlos Guastavino; plus Lou Harrison's first suite for tuned guitar.
