For an hour each week, Northern Lights focuses exclusively on Scandinavian and Baltic music. In this episode: contemporary sounds by contemporary Latvian composers on the new CD by Latvian violinist Laura Zariņa, and nocturnal Swedish jazz sounds by Elin Forkelid with her occasional quartet.
Our musical exploration in Northern Lights isn’t limited by style or fame: we listen to the old and certainly the new, to the familiar and the unknown. We will cover the entire spectrum of classical music and crossover.
