The Worldwide When is 90-minute monthly programme. Each programme has a theme. These themes could be as diverse as a musical journey around the Mediterranean or down the coast of East Africa; Accordions that shock the World; or only playing songs from place beginning with a specific letter (which would enable him to play lots of music from some his favourite countries Zanzibar, Zimbabwe, Zaire (as it was called during the heyday of Congolese music) and Zambia.
