worlds sound very different, but Dinnerstein says when you strip away the

in common has to do with emotion and color." They'll discuss finding each other, and on finding

music types. We’ll hear from accordion virtuoso Maria Kalaniemi along
with something else for accordion (and electronics) by Kimmo Pohjonen. Plus,
there’s music by multi-instrumentalist Pekka Pohjola, who was best known as a

12:00 P.M. Performance Today 1924 was a landmark year for American music. It was the year of George
Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue first made audiences swoon. George Antheil was
another American composer who loved jazz. He liked the idea of Rhapsody in
Blue, but he thought Gershwin's piece missed the gritty down-and-dirty heart of
jazz and blues. We'll hear his
answer to Rhapsody in Blue, but with a little more gravel in it: Antheil's Jazz
Symphony from 1925.

12:00 P.M. Performance Today The Budapest String Quartet was founded, logically, in the city of Budapest.
The Cleveland Quartet made their home in, you guessed it, Cleveland, Ohio. But
the Tokyo Quartet has never been based in Tokyo. Four bright young music
students from Tokyo each moved to the United States to study, met in New York
City and in 1969 formed a string quartet. The Tokyo Quartet has been a major

12:00 P.M. Performance Today Violinist Rachel Barton Pine says, "there's nothing more fundamental than
holding an infant in your arms and rocking them gently to sleep." Classical

little-known lullabies by well-known composers, just in time for Mother's Day.

Gilbert and Sullivan, Noel Coward and Rossini.
The Wisdom of Mark Levy and This Week in the Media.
6:00 Business of the Arts with Judy Neale. The first of two solo interviews with local pop singing icon
Jimmy Borges, first broadcast last January. Jimmy talks about his Kalihi
childhood, his first musical ventures, and his love for football. But that
didn't stop him from taking those first steps to sing in San Francisco clubs,
including a first job in a Chinese cabaret that changed his name to Jimmy Jay
because it sounded more Chinese.
7:00 Singing and Other Sins with Gary Hickling. Paradise
and the Peri, Part 2. This
wonderful oratorio is under-performed nowadays, but was very popular in Robert

soloists, chorus and orchestra and I’ll be playing the version conducted by
John Eliot Gardiner.
8:00 New Sounds with John Schaefer Bowed String Multiples - Music for multiple stringed instruments
Hear a work from “Recursions,” the solo record by violist Nicholas Cords, who

melodies that range from the thoughtful to the propulsive, with stops at the
Penguin Café and along the Silk Road.

for multiple cellos by Zoe Keating, and perhaps music performed by double-bass
player Robert Black of the Bang on a Can All-Stars.

12:00 P.M. Performance Today Napoleon's defeat inspired two noisy pieces of music: Tchaikovsky's
1812 Overture, and a noisy, impetuous, militant march by
Beethoven called Wellington's Victory, one of those rare occasions when the
loser's name is more known than the winner. Beethoven's march is not played as
often as the Tchaikovsky, but it's a fascinating piece with a curious history. We'll hear Wellington's Victory in performance
from a concert in Dublin, Ireland.
2:00 Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin. Richard
Wagner . “The greatest genius
that ever lived” proclaimed W.H. Auden, while Rossini said that Wagner had

200th birthday in grand style with programs filled to the brim with

12:00 P.M. Performance Today In 1908 Maurice Ravel wrote an enchanting piece for solo piano called Ondine or
water fairy. Ravel often did orchestral versions of his piano pieces, but not
this one. He left it as a piano solo. However, that hasn't stopped others from
trying. We'll hear a fascinating musical
experiment. The Sao Paulo Symphony Orchestra had Louis Lortie play Ravel's
solo piano version. Then, without a break, they played a 1990 orchestration of
the piece. We'll hear them back to back, just as they were done on stage in
Brazil.

12:00 P.M. Performance Today "Good composers borrow, great composers steal." That quote is often attributed
to Igor Stravinsky, one of the most original composers of the 20th century.
Even when Stravinsky pilfered musical ideas, though, he made them very much his
own. When Stravinsky wrote ballet music in 1919, he lifted tunes from about two
centuries earlier, but tweaked them enough to put his own stamp on them. We'll hear the result: The Pulcinella Suite from a concert in Cologne, Germany.

6:00 Business of the Arts with Judy Neale. Cultural
commentator Matthew Gurewitsch sits down to talk about his varied career and
the surprising sidelines that have taken up his focus, such as suddenly
directing Wagner in Russia, among a surprising series of occupations and
interests. His most recent effort: today's New York Times Arts & Leisure
feature on HOT's recent leading tenor in Tosca, Ta'u Pupu'a, a past NFL player
and currently embarked on making his way in the opera world. Listeners may
recall Matthew's profile of HPR Music Director Gene Schiller, also published as
a feature in the NY Times about a year ago.
7:00 Singing and Other Sins with Gary Hickling Wagner’s

evening.
8:00 New Sounds with John Schaefer The late British composer Steve Martland was
one of the more quirky composers heard on New Sounds as long ago as the 1980’s.
A refugee from punk rock, he studied with Louis Andriessen, before forming his
own ensemble. He passed away in early May, at the age of 53. We remember him by revisiting live performances by the Steve
Martland Band from the annual Bang on a Can Music Marathon, recorded at
Brooklyn Academy of Music in 2000. Listen to a piece of English folk
music adapted to serve the purpose of being connected to football, “Kick,”
along with a major work written for the Bang on a Can All-Stars, “Horses of
Instruction,” which sounds like a muscular jazz-funk summit between Reich and
Stravinsky. There's also a performance of a short work, “Re-mix.”
Martland introduced each piece from the stage, as well as conducted his
ensemble.
9:00 The Early Muse with Ian Capps The
First Spanish Masters Three

Francisco Penalosa from Madrid, and most important of all, Cristobal de Morales
from Seville.
