What do we mean when we say "Roma (gypsy) music"? What do the musical forms emerging from diverse Roma communities have in common, and what separates them? In this episode, Joe Williams seeks answers to these questions, speaking to expert musicologists and luminary musicians to try and understand how and why Roma music varies across regions, ethnicities and cultures. This program features interviews with Slovak musicologist Jana Belišová, Hungarian violinist Kálmán Balogh, Serbian singer and composer Dragan Ristić and Turkish clarinetist Ramazan Sesler, and also includes several musical tracks.
