1. From the Isle of Music, May 29-June 3
We have just returned from Cubadisco 2017, Cuba's most important music awards program, with the best new Cuban music and a lot of new interviews. We will begin broadcasting this wonderful new content June 4.
Meanwhile, this week is a replay of an early 2016 episode featuring members of Conjunto Chappottin, one of Cuba’s most historically important conjuntos. We will also feature a highly varied mix of other Cuban music genres.
Four opportunities to listen on shortwave:
For the Americas and parts of Europe, Tuesday 0000-0100 UTC on WBCQ, 7490 KHz from Monticello, ME, USA (Monday 8-9PM EDT in the US)
3 & 4. For Europe and sometimes beyond, Tuesday 1900-2000 UTC and Saturday 1200-1300 on Channel 292, 6070 KHz from Rohrbach, Germany.
Uncle Bill's Melting Pot, a musical variety program that features everything from everywhere plus bits of comedy and other weirdness now and then, will air on WBCQ the Planet, 7490 KHz, Thursday, June 1 from 2300-2330 UTC (7:00pm-7:30pm EDT in the Americas). This week wanders the continents a bit.
