This year on the WOH Radio stage, Valentine steps into sacred spaces on the Worldwide Breakfast, live from WOH; exploring forgotten rituals and healing sounds from across the world. From ancestral chants and ceremonial rhythms to ambient meditations and spiritual improvisations, we uncover how music has long been used as a tool for renewal, resistance, and care. Drawing on sonic traditions that have been silenced, sidelined, or slowly fading – and tuning into a contemporary wave of ambient and spiritual jazz that reimagines sound as a space for healing and connection – this show brings healing sound practices and sacred musical traditions out of the shadows and into the light.
