New Sounds
Year-End Revue
Show #2356
Friday, December 17, 2004
On this installment of New Sounds, hear live in-studio performances from WNYC’s afternoon program “Soundcheck.” There’s music from the Tin Hat Trio, and their blend of tango, bluegrass, contemporary classical, and Eastern European folk traditions. Listen to music by Calexico, who perch on a pinhead drawing from country, folk, jazz, surf, mariachi, and the blues. Plus, the WNYC Young People’s Radio Chorus sings Tod Machover, tunes from The Bad Plus, Celtic beats from the energetic Irish funsters Flook, and more.
