Charif Megarbane’s Return Journey
Kathryn Tickell handpicks a selection of roots-based music, and Lebanese musician Charif Megarbane guides us through two tracks: one for the road, and one that reminds him of home.
Kathryn Tickell curates a rich tapestry of roots-based music from around the world, featuring a trio of tracks from Mali, and a rare glimpse into the early soundtracks of 1930s and '40s South Asian cinema.
Plus, ahead of his UK tour celebrating the release of his new album Hawalat, globe-trotting Lebanese musician Charif Megarbane shares his two ‘Return Journey’ tracks: one for the road and one that takes him home.
