This week’s show is part of our series on minerals and precious gems. We aim to eventually cover all the minerals and gems known to science. Look forward to our all-quartzite show.
For our look at the world of diamonds, we have German brass, microtonal marimba and some of the most terrifying (un)easy listening harmonica you are ever likely to hear. We’re also delighted to announce the return of steel drums!
