Reporters' Notes

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Emily Buchanan invites Britain's most distinguished foreign correspondents to remember the music that evokes events which they found themselves reporting to the world. This week Jane Standley, BBC Africa correspondent, looks at a Swahili love song, last year's South African election campaign hit and the spookier, jollier tune that heralded daily news propaganda in Zaire.
