Yesterday, Janet was interviewed on the English Show at Radio X and got to explain some of what she does to the radio-listening expat community. The entire show can be downloaded from the English Show link above or directly here.
It’s pretty large – 82 MB – but will give you a couple of on-the-air mentions of Janet’s name in various pronounciations. At 2:15 she’s referred to as a “Gothic harpist,” which could be somewhat misleading, since she doesn’t dress in black and sport piercings, skull rings, and bullet casing belts; the brief mention after the news at about 34:00 is a little more precise. The actual interview begins after the Tracy Chapman song at the 38:50 mark, and culminates in Janet playing a Trotto from 14th century Italy with her baby harp (“Arpa Doble”). Her concert gets a fair bit of publicity and is mentioned again at about 55:00 in their calendar of events, alongside the Jazzfestival Basel and the Mamma Mia musical (and it’s the only free event). I’m curious to see if extra people show up for the concert because of this interview!
