Nathalie Joachim joins host Raina Douris

On Nathalie Joachim’s latest album, Ki moun ou ye, the New York born and Philly based musician and composer sings mostly in her family’s native language: Haitian Creole. It’s a way for the classically trained flutist to connect with her heritage and explore her family – and their homeland’s – history.

Listen to the session here.
