Today on Morning Edition, National Public Radio's senior national correspondent, Linda Wertheimer, gave a succinct account of the recording deal between the Boys Choir of Kenya and Universal Music, one of the “Big Four” firms in the global market for recorded music. Several brief excerpts of the Choir's singing can be heard in the story, which is 1 minute and 18 seconds long:
