    Vaults: Trilok Gurtu

    Our New Sounds From the Vaults series wraps up tonight, after our week of banging and crashing with favorite percussionists. For this show, we revisit a 1992 conversation with Indian tabla master and drummer Trilok Gurtu, where he introduces music from a collaborative project with Jan Garbarek and Nana Vasconcelos. Also, hear Indian classical music featuring Zakir Hussain, and Raja Chatrapati Singh.

Away From Jazz

New Sounds

airs daily at 11PM on 93.9 FM
For this New Sounds, get a load of jazz musicians stepping away from the jazz tradition. There's music from punkass jazz melody-makers Gutbucket off of their latest release, "A Modest Proposal." Also, we'll hear from the latest by Matthew Shipp, called "Harmony and Abyss" and much more.

Robert Moran

In Robert Moran's Kitchen

New Sounds

From October 30, 1989, the infamous "cooking show" with composer/raconteur Robert Moran. Recorded while cooking an Indian dinner in John Schaefer's kitchen, for reasons still not entirely clear. Along the way, we hear an "acoustic" version of Cage's 0:00 - for amplification of chopping vegetables and blender. And don't miss the teary conversation as onions are chopped. View the the recipes.
