I'm intrigued by: Pancho-Vladigerov-Hebrew-Bulgarian

Is this what they mean by world music?

[french frank]

All is clear: Vladigerov was Bulgarian, his mother was Jewish and Pancho is not (as I'd assumed) the shortened form of Hispanic Francisco, but a shortened form of Bulgarian/Macedonian Panayot (Панайот) from Greek Παναγιώτης.

Thanks FF for the info..
I enjoyed listening to the Vladigerov, ~4:43:19 in.

It just makes it worse that so often, the interloper programmes are repeats, as with both "Piano Flow" and "Happy Harmonies" this morning.

Outrageous. We've been told they're there because live broadcast is a requirement of having them available as podcasts.

I see Tearjerker has returned according to the schedule, presented by someone who I've read as Sigrid Good this week and Sigrid Soothing last week. Downtime has "lo-fi orchestral beats" - Is this … a puzzlement, or a Thing?
