Late Junction

Since the ice ages and beyond, few animals have been as noble a companion and as bright an inspiration to the human soul as the horse. On the eve of the UN-declared World Horse Day, Late Junction turns hippophile as Verity Sharp presents a selection of tracks inspired by, made from, and related to horses. Expect the sound of a 13th-century Welsh horsehair harp and that of the morin khuur, a type of horsehair fiddle native to Mongolia. Plus, rollicking cowboy anthems and musical odes to mythological steeds.
