Greg Harness explores the world of the bass clarinet in this week’s edition of The Global Radio Workshop.
From Norway to America and across the musical spectrum, this unheralded instrument finally gets a clarion call. Join us!
Global Radio Workshop is an ongoing one hour series of programs by producers from around the world, unfettered by genre, style or structure. It will run from the conventional to the utterly ridiculous, and offer a one hour glimpse into unique aural worlds. The program is produced in cooperation with RootsWorld, the online magazine of music, and WPKN Radio in Bridgeport, CT.
