The new BBC archive of indigenous music from around the world has!
BBC will tomorrow launch a globally-accessible online archive that features indigenous music from some of the world's most dangerous conflict zones, as well as its most inaccessible states. There are audio clips of singing waitresses performing sea shanties on the coast of North Korea, and harp-playing cowboys in rural Venezuela. In all, there will be 100 hours of programming on the BBC's World Music Archive, alongside dozens of photographs of recordings being made in the most remote locations. Essentially the resource comprises the output of Radio 3's world music programmes from the past decade an extraordinary collection of some of the most unlikely and most beautiful music ever recorded.
