Global Village on PBS 106.7 FM, Melbourne, Australia

4 May 2025

Playlist #1736 for Global Village (PBS-FM, Melbourne, Australia) for Sunday May 4, 2025. Today's program focuses on a significant date: May 1st. As we have done in previous years, there's music here that traditionally marks changes of seasons, mainly in the northern hemisphere. And this date is also a symbol of social change: a day marking hopes for rising up, protesting, organising and renewing. This music takes us to links to May Day: May 1st - in Australia, England, Germany, Greece, Italy, Japan, France, Iran, Palestine, Ukraine, Sweden, Norway, Czechia, the USA, and Spain. You hear several old favourite songs, which we visit each year, but also some new tunes and stories. Roger Holdsworth presenting.

(A): Australian artists - all or partly.
