VESPERTINE WITH ELLEN CRANITCH

Our yearly voyage into the deep tonight on World Ocean Day,  a celebration of the majesty and power of the sea, and the many brilliant and evocative artistic responses to its call.   Dive into the blue with music by Debussy, Andrew Bird, 3Epkano, Seasick Steve and more. Ailie Blunnie sails into the West, Charles Trenet doffs his chapeau, and Shauna Mullin sings every sailor’s prayer to Send Us A Quiet Night.  Plenty more treasures in the hold as we acknowledge the majesty, beauty and life-giving power of the sea.
