Back from the land where the spices fill the air with lingering savour. Along came the music, distant melodies, enigmatic voices and lasting dreams. "Próximo Oriente" is a show broadcasted on Rádio Macau about what "Asia" or "oriental" convey in musical terms. It consists on weekly expeditions in search of representations of the Orient, an image constructed and fantasised through sound. We will be wandering across different soundscapes and exoticisms, under the spell of music from far away places.
