The rather isolated province of Kalch lies just to the south of Pakistan on the west coast of India. It has given its name to a form of song called Katchi Kafl , which is unique in having a shawm in addition to the usual accompaniment. In this programme John Levy introduces recordings he has made in Katch, including an example of Naubat drumming.

† by PHILIP DREW
Mr. Drew examines the novels of Herman Melville in the light of his view that they develop a deliberate strategy of ambiguity. He sees Melville as locating his story at a point where the general morality is not simply vague but in fact contrives to support simultaneously two incompatible doctrines.'
