Abrimos con los tres discos favoritos de noviembre, con Petroloukas Halkias & Vasilis Kostas, desde Grecia, el recopilatorio de grabaciones históricas «Sounds portraits from Bulgaria» y Los Pirañas, desde Colombia. En Colombia seguimos, con ejemplos de música tradicional y reelaborada, para saltar a China y deleitarnos con las expresiones vocales de artistas de diversos pueblos que habitan en su territorio, para rematar con sones del Pirineo catalán.
