#2967: New Releases July 2009

New Sounds | May 24, 2010
It's the most wonderful time of the month - the showcasing of new releases! On this New Sounds program, listen to the pick of the piles, the cream of the crop. We'll separate the wheat from the chaff. There's music from Jon Balke and the Moroccan singer Amina Alaoui, along with new music from the Vijay Iyer Trio, perhaps something from A Hawk and a Hacksaw. Plus, a film score by Rob Burger, some Ethio-pop from Fool's Gold, and solo piano music by Rachel Grimes. And more!
