Then, there’s music by Sudanese-born, Brooklyn-based (by way of Yemen) singer, Alsarah  & her band The Nubatones, who play an infectious blend of East African folk and Western pop.\nAlso, hear “True Love” by Hamid Sakhizada, a musician from Afghanistan who plays the the two-stringed, long-necked lute known as dambura. After he immersed himself in the study of Hazara folk music in Pakistan, he later had to relocate to Norway because of the persecution involved in keeping the culture alive.\nListen to an original song, “Lerato ( Love)”, inspired by South African and Tanzanian musical tradition from the Manchester-based South African cellist Abel Selaocoe, off his 2022 album Where is Home (Hae Ke Kae). Plus, songs from Romanian duo Balkan Taksim, Afro-Peruvian songstress Susana Baca, and a work by U.S. Poet Laureate and sax player Joy Harjo of the Muscogee Creek Nation. And more. -Caryn Havlik\nProgram #4715, Love Songs Around the World (First aired 2/14/23)\nARTIST: Najma / Church of BettyWORK: Aaj Madhosh Hua Jaye Re [1:23]RECORDING: Forbidden KissSOURCE: Shanachie #64063INFO: shanachie.com\nARTIST: MinyeshuWORK: Getee [4:37]RECORDING: NetsaSOURCE: ARC MusicINFO: https://naxos.lnk.to/NetsaEL\nARTIST: Balkan TaksimWORK: Anadolka [4:42]RECORDING: Disko TelegrafSOURCE: Buda MusiqueINFO: budamusique.bandcamp.com\nARTIST: Hamid SakhizadaWORK: True Love (from Daykondi) [3:50]RECORDING: Dai RaftSOURCE: Grappa Musikkforlag/LidioINFO: grappa.no\nARTIST: Alsarah & the NubatonesWORK: Habibi Taal [3:18]RECORDING: SiltSOURCE: Wonderwheel RecordsINFO: wonderwheelrecordings.bandcamp.com\nARTIST: Susan McKeown /Ensemble TartitWORK: Oro mhile gra (A thousand times my love) [4:29]RECORDING: Sweet LibertySOURCE: World Village #468029INFO: worldvillagemusic.com\nARTIST: Najma / Church of BettyWORK: Aaj Madhosh Hua Jaye Re [4:23]RECORDING: Forbidden KissSOURCE: Shanachie #64063INFO: shanachie.com\nARTIST: Xylouris WhiteWORK: Only Love [3:30]RECORDING: MotherSOURCE: Bella UnionINFO: bellaunion.com\nARTIST: Federico AubeleWORK: Este amor [3:36]RECORDING: Amatoria SOURCE: ESL Music INFO: Try Amazon.com, AppleMusic or Spotify\nARTIST: Abel SelaocoeWORK: Lerato ( Love) [4:22]RECORDING: Where is home (Hae Ke Kae) SOURCE: Warner ClassicsINFO: warnerclassics.com\nARTIST: Susana BacaWORK: De Los Amores [5:14]RECORDING: Eco De SombrasSOURCE: Luaka BopINFO: luakabop.com\nARTIST: Joy Harjo          WORK: How Love Blows Through The Trees [5:21]RECORDING: I Pray For My Enemies  SOURCE: Sunyata RecordsINFO: joyharjo.com/music/i-pray-for-my-enemies"}
