World Music with Deirdre Saravia

If there is one thing that the world’s cultures share, it is a love of music.   The variety of inspiring sounds being produced these days is endless and new technologies serve to bring us all closer to one another’s music.  Today, more than ever, music is an international language that unites us all.

Each Sunday night from 9 to 11 p.m., World Music with Deirdre Saravia takes you on a musical journey to some of the world’s most fascinating places.   From China to Brazil, from the Balkans to Indonesia, World Music will introduce you to sounds from a world far from your own, some of it totally foreign to American ears, much of it very familiar.  A world traveler herself, the Belfast native introduces each piece with fascinating details about the music, the musician and the culture that produced them.

World music today is more popular in the U.S. than ever, Saravia says.  There is, she says, a burgeoning interest in foreign performers and their music. “When I first started doing world music, there was almost nothing available here. I would have to go to Europe and bring it back.” Today, she says, shelves at music stores are filled with an infinite variety of music, from cultures throughout the world.

She credits the work of performers like Peter Gabriel and Paul Simon for bringing world music to the attention of American audiences.  But she has also seen a change in attitude in America towards foreigners.  “Before, foreigners would come to America and couldn’t become American fast enough.  When I lived in London, you would see people on the street in their native dress.  Here, there was always this homogenization,” she says, as foreigners scrambled to disappear into the American fabric.  Today, foreigners feel more comfortable in celebrating their uniqueness, she says.

As a result, Saravia says, there is a burgeoning interest in world music.   “Not understanding the language is no longer a problem.  People enjoy the music for the beat, the instrumentation.”

Though each World Music show is built around a central theme, rarely will it center on one type of music.  Saravia says she strives for variety, though there will always be a connection between the songs she plays.  Music from as many as 15 countries can be represented in the same show.

Her love of world music, Saravia says, was inspired by her travels throughout Europe, Africa and the Americas.  “You come to learn that people are basically the same throughout the world,” she says.  “They sing about the same things."

Airs:  9 p.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday on KSTX 89.1 FM

Sunday on World Music

One of the most innovative and exciting World Music groups performing today, comes from San Antonio, Texas. Wine and Alchemy are about to release their debut album, packed with evocative music from Albania, France, Ireland, Greece and many otherlocations.

This music has truly something for everyone. Mark Vareles is lead instrumentalist, Roxanne Bruscha not only sings, but provides visual excitement with her highly choreographed Middle Eastern dancing.

Listen to World Music with Deirdre Saravia this Sunday night for an interview and the music with two of the members of Wine and Alchemy.
