Welcome to another "short on time" show featuring longer pieces from a number of newer releases. 

During my long weekend trip to visit friends and family in Connecticut, I had the opportunity to see Toby Amies' documentary, "In The Court of the Crimson King: King Crimson at 50".  Even if you're not a King Crimson or a progressive rock fan, the film is quite engaging, both funny and moving.  Well worth checking out. In addition, on the way back I was able to make my seasonal winter stop at the Princeton Record Exchange and loaded up on goodies to be shared on upcoming programs.  

Enjoy the show and be sure to check out older programs you might have missed!

Phase One of today's program highlights a number of new releases, concluding with the emotional, "Journey’s End," Neil Rolnick's reflection on the battle with cancer experienced by the his wife of 45 years, Wendy. The piece was commissioned and performed by Kathleen Supové who, as a personal friend of the couple, witnessed Wendy’s heroic fight with the disease and Rolnick’s role in caring for her throughout her illness. 

In Phase Two, we celebrate the 86th revolution around the sun of Philip Glass, featuring some lesser known pieces.

Enjoy!

Greetings & Felicitations!

I am flabbergasted by the sheer quantity AND quality of new music, in all genres, available to air. This makes the listening & selection process quite enjoyable, though time consuming. (That's where being semi-retired often comes in handy.)  I've also been pondering about the sheer number of electronic artists, in multiple genres, that are populating the world of Bandcamp. With that in mind, you might want to check out this interesting article from the folks at Pitchfork (https://t.co/FVjUvETtR3) concerning the ambient streaming boom.

Enjoy this week's mulit-genre extravaganza!

This week's program opens with a set to honor the memory and music of guitarist, Jeff Beck.  I'm a particular fan of his fusion-oriented albums which are the ones I've highlighted tracks from.  The balance of the music samples from the large pile of current releases I have scattered around me in my basement lair.

Back in October I was in the Princeton, NJ area for a family event and there was no way I could return home to Maryland without embarking on a pilgrimage to the Princeton Record Exchange in order to reap from the musical harvest available from their cornucopia of lightly pre-owned CDs & DVDs. (For now, I let the vinyl be.)  All of the pieces you'll hear were gleaned from that haul.

Enjoy!

Greetings!

The selection of the works making up a majority of today's program were inspired by my recent trip to Turkey.  You'll get a bit of a history lesson in how traditional Turkish music was integrated with Western music in the early 20th century following the Turkish War of Independence which ended in 1923 and the establishment of the Republic of Turkey which followed.  In addition, I've got some new releases thrown in for good measure.

Enjoy!

This week's program features some great new releases featuring Canadian related composers & musicians, including Nick Storring, Yang Chen, Yaz Lancaster & Badge Époque Ensemble.  In addition, you'll hear a set of pieces featuring a piece of flute hardware, created by flutist Robert Dick, the Glissando Headjoint.  (http://robertdick.net/the-glissando-headjoint/)

 

Dick's creation features a telescoping headjoint, with a contemporary cut silver headjoint sliding inside a carrier tube. Two “wings” extend from the lip plate and comfortably embrace the flutist’s cheeks. Moving the flute to the right slides the headjoint from its “home position” (all the way in) and extends the length of the flute, resulting in the ability to produce glissandi which can be made both to and from every note on the flute, resulting in some incredible sounds.

Enjoy!
