  two beautiful pieces I heard on NPR  this afternoon;

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4931402

takes you to an article about a new film by Thomas Riedelsheimer, a 
documentary about Scottish percussionist Evelyn Glennie.  Mr. 
Riedelsheimer made one of my favorite films of the last couple of 
years, another documentary, about the wonderful artist Andy 
Goldsworthy, called Rivers and Tides. That film, and this one, also 
have superb soundtrack additions by Fred Frith.

and

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4864538

takes you to an article about a New Orleans artist and preacher, dead 
since 1980, whose a cappella tambourine chants (I know, not strictly a 
cappella) have been not only re-issued but also remixed with quite 
pleasing results.  Check out 'Power (voodoo Version)' for some 
toe-tapping and head nodding action.
