Slovakia Today, English Language Current Affairs Programme from Slovak Radio

Do you know the genre World Music? It blends classical musical traditions with modern elements, creating something that feels both new and yet familiar. Which Slovak bands have made their mark on the global World Music scene? Radio FM editor Vladimír Potančok, who has been following this topic for years, will tell us more — and he’ll also invite you to the 10th edition of the World Music Festival in Bratislava, taking place in the capital at the end of September. In the second part of the show, we’ll once again look at a personality whose name you can also find on Slovak street signs. This time, the spotlight will be on the storyteller Pavol Dobšinský.
