BBC Radio 3 - World on 3, Lopa Kothari - Paco Peña in Session

Lopa Kothari with new music and a live studio session from flamenco guitarist Paco Pena.

Lopa Kothari presents the latest releases of music from around the world plus a live studio session from celebrated flamenco guitarist and composer Paco Peña.

Paco Peña is one of Spanish flamenco's greatest exponents, and is well known to UK audiences following his move to London in the 1960s from his native Cordoba. His work as performer and composer has included solo recitals, crossover projects, choral collaborations and theatrical productions with the Paco Peña Flamenco Dance Company. The latest of these, Flamencura, is currently at Sadler's Wells in London and explores the idea of duende, the flamenco artist's sought-after state of deep communion with the music and its audience.

Live music and the arts: broadcasts more live music than any other radio network. Classical music is its core. Genres include world and new music, jazz, speech and drama.
