WPR Music Library picks: Vol. 4 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s just about halfway through September, which means I get to talk about fun music I find in WPR’s Music Library! Let’s get into it. I don’t know when exactly I discovered Arto Tunçboyacıyan, but I’m really glad I did. I quickly became obsessed with the album “How Much Is Yours?,” which features jazz and Armenian fusion, along with both funny and heartfelt lyrics.

Here’s the second installment of my library picks, where I tell you about all of the cool music I discover in our shelves. I was poking around WPR’s online music database one day, looking for something to play on my show, when I came across Strunz & Farah, who were listed as a mix between Costa Rican and Iranian music. I spent the rest of my day listening to their discography and slowly becoming obse
WPR Music new album of the week: ‘Martines: The Complete Keyboard Works’ (opens the original)
