Algerian-born French guitarist Pierre Bensusan has been playing and recording his special brand of acoustic music since he was 17. It blends elements of Celtic and French traditional music with the rhythms and inflections of jazz and the Near East, and you'll get to sample some of it on this program. Also included are richly layered sounds from the ambient music group Grain Space, and the pure country sounds of Emmylou Harris and the forever-iconic Hank Williams.
