Mary Ann Kennedy presents music from 2008's Valley of the Moon camp by Bruce Molsky, Martin Hayes and Natalie Haas. Plus music from southern Morocco by the popular Oudaden.

World on 3 moves to a new regular Friday night slot on Radio 3. The three presenters - Charlie Gillett, Lopa Kothari and Mary Ann Kennedy - will continue to bring their particular expertise and tastes to the programme, presenting new CDs and classic recordings of world music, folk, blues, gospel and much much more.
Together with studio sessions and concert recordings, and now with the occasional recording contributed by listeners, World on 3 promises some of the most enticing sounds from across the globe.

Mary Ann Kennedy starts off the new slot, with a programme including music gathered fresh from last month's Vally of the Moon music camp, a gathering in the California Redwoods of leading folk and trad musicians, including Bruce Molsky, Martin Hayes and Natalie Haas. Also, music gfrom Southern Morocco by Oudaden, one of the country's most traditional and popular groups, but so far rarely heard outside Morocco.
