Last Night of globalFEST’s Tiny Desk Series Live Tonight, Conference Next Week

<p> If you haven’t tuned in yet, you’ve still got one more night to watch the globalFEST-Tiny Desk series live. Watch Al Bilali Soudan from Mali, Kiran Ahluwalia with music from the Indian subcontinent and Tufan Derince’s Kurdish music tonight via YouTube starting at 8 pm. The festivities are hosted by our good friend, Angeliqué Kidjo.<br> </p> <figure><iframe loading="lazy" width="500" height="281" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/G3QgBxK5Ev8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></figure> <p><br> If you missed the previous two nights, you can binge them whenever you’re ready from NPR Music’s YouTube page. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BThnnxdLAqs">Night One is here</a> and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Htmfg1BMXTA">night two is here</a>. Music industry types will want to get their tickets to the <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2022-wavelengths-global-music-conference-tickets-204478048347">Wavelengths: Global Music Conference, which happens online next week</a>. </p> <p>It's maybe not the festival we, or its planners, were expecting, but it remains a pretty fantastic pivot that we get to see the artists in such an intimate setting from the comfort of our own homes.</p>
