When I was very young, I had a cassette tape of the Nonesuch Explorer Series with Shakuhachi Flute, that I played so much.. As I got older, it stayed with me, across all the media as technology grew. I would have purchased the entire series if I had had the finances to do it, but thankfully through Spotify, it’s all available on this playlist. It’s a way to explore the myriad expressions of music across cultures all over the world, and this will be all I will listen to, for the most part, in March, to remind me that there is an enormous world out there, so beautiful, and not to forget that in the isolation of the pandemic. I hope it will bring you as much wonder and exploration as it has been doing for me.
