Mary Ann Kennedy with CDs from across the globe, and a studio session with Cimarron, who play the music of Colombia's rural heartland.

The name Cimarron means 'wild bull', and it's not a bad description of the untamed energy of the music of the cattle-rearing region of Llaneros Orientales. Cimarron play harp, bandola and cuatro with dazzling virtuosity, with instrumental pieces and songs written for festive dancing, milking and cattle driving.

Presented by Mary Ann Kennedy
Produced by James Parkin
