World Routes in Israel
Moshe Morad visited Israel to find out how the country's diverse ethnic makeup influences its music. He recorded the coffee-grinding music of Bedouins on Mount Tabor, and attended a Peace Festival by the Sea of Galilee where he met world music diva Noa and Palestinian rap group Dam. Plus an introduction to central bus station music, and a session from chart-topping Ethiopians in Tel Aviv.

In the second programme, Moshe met the queen mother of central bus station music, a singer who's just had her vocal chords removed after suffering cancer. Plus, a disappearing Iraqi tradition in Tel Aviv, Russian and Algerian roots at the Dead Sea Festival, and a trip to Jerusalem to celebrate Simhat Torah at the Wailing Wall and to hear songs from an ancient Sephardic neighbourhood.
