In the first of two programmes, Alyn Shipton introduces recordings of two contrasting duos. The music of Paul Rogers
(bass) and Paul Dunmall
(saxophones/flutes/pipes), playing under the name
Folk, is jazz improvisation inspired by the folk tradition. The other duo combines two world-famous percussion players - from Scotland Evelyn Glennie and from Brazil Nana
Vasconcelos - fulfilling for the first time their long-held ambition to play together. Producer Derek Drescher
