About the Show



London-based Greek jazz pianist and composer Maria Grapsa presents a monthly radio journey through inspirational, creative and improvised sounds from around the world. Rooted in folk traditions and their meeting point with jazz, the show explores how heritage, rhythm and spontaneity come together in fresh and unexpected ways.
