The sounds of Turkey's forgotten divas from the 1960s and 70s; the story of how the National Youth Orchestra of Iraq was formed in a time of war; and an architectural journey down the E11, the UAE's longest road. These are just some of the themes and sounds explored in Crossroads, a new podcast from The National's Review section.
