All Songs Considered host Bob Boilen makes a point to attend “globalFEST” at a New York City nightclub every year. Now, given the pandemic's challenges and the hardening of international borders, NPR Music and globalFEST moved the 2021 edition from the nightclub to your screen of choice and shared the festival with the world. The virtual festival presents 16 artists representing more than a dozen countries. Check out Nora Brown, 10th grader with a preternatural skill for the banjo.
