After the newscast we provide a brief report on a cause for concern in the Spanish capital. Something is happening to Madrid's trees. Fully grown cedars and pines in Retiro Park; towering elms, plane and locust trees in Vallecas, Ciudad Lineal and Salamanca neighborhoods are falling, uprooted. Huge branches crack and break from their trunks. A 38 year old man was killed when a tree toppled on him in the park. Authorities in the city have set up a commission to study the problem and provide solutions. That's followed by the music of Bosnian musician Goran Bregovic, who performed at this summer's Mar de Músicas Festival in Cartagena.
