In this week's edition of the Arts, Rob Cameron pays a visit to the Prague studio of Slovak-born multi-instrumentalist Swetja. Born in the Slovak town of Banska Bystrice, Swetja is now based in the Czech Republic, where he composes and performs music on dozens of instruments. Swetja is best known for his work with an ancient Slovak wind instrument called the fujara, and in 2002 won first prize in the prestigious USA Songwriting Competition.
