Monthly, 18:00-19:30Tuesday
A journey through the archives of Alan Lomax and other recordings of traditional and folk music, with occasional side roads into related contemporary experimental forms. Lomax’s extensive mass of folk musics from regions such as the United States and the Caribbean lead to the (re)discovery of overlooked musical heritages and raised notions of communal belonging and restrictive authorship. Music from the people for the people, from prisons to porches.
