CHRISTOPHER HEDGE'S HEROIC SOUNDTRACK
PBS is airing a documentary called “The New Heroes”. Narrated by Robert Redford, the 4 part
series explores people making changes throughout the world, using entrepreneurial ideas to
overcome poverty, despair and even slavery. Scoring this global exploration is Christopher
Hedge, a San Francisco-based musician who has created a global score using musicians like
renowned flutist Paul Horn, African percussionist Titos Sompa and Alki Akbar Khan's son,
Alam on sarod. Christopher Hedge and producer Bob Grove talk about their global soundtrack
(Triloka).
