YoYoMa! What a beautiful & melodious name for a musician. I eagerly wait to see a {double CD plus Blu Ray} project with Peter Gabriel & John McLaughlin SHAKTI group. These three giant musicians are the only people in the World Music scene today that their focus is

Musicians without Frontiers & World Music.

I do invite all the readers of this comment to invest 2 hours of their precious time & browse the Internet & learn what these 3 Giants have done to our ears & most important our Souls.

I bow down in respect.

Cheers.

Hamid.

Great show; I can listen, most days. Was wondering if a show on Jacqueline du Pre is planned, or have I missed it? This is the 20th anniversary of her passing. Thanks.
