12-28-24 Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left of Center - Solstice

Greetings!
The winter solstice, or hibernal solstice, occurs when either of Earth's poles reaches its maximum tilt away from the sun. This happens twice yearly, once in each hemisphere. For that hemisphere, the winter solstice is the day with the shortest period of daylight and longest night of the year, and when the Sun is at its lowest daily maximum elevation in the sky.
With the winter solstice having occurred on December 21st and the advent of winter, it seemed appropriate to play music addressing these topics.
Enjoy!

12-14-24 Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left of Center

Greetings!
One of the joys of hosting PTE over the past 35 years is the opportunity to present multiple genres over a two hour period and make the flow, or non-flow, of the program interesting.  This week we have creative improv, brushing on both jazz and classical realms. Then we move one to contemporary composition, electroacoustics & experimental ambient.  And that's only in Phase One...
Enjoy!

Greetings!
So, during my recent jaunt to Europe, I found a killer used CD/vinyl store in Budapest and was tempted to dispose of my clothes and just fill my suitcase up with CDs. The track from George Harrison's "Electronic Sound" is a sampling from the stack I did procure, with other items likely to show up in the coming weeks.
I'm also happy to highlight electric guitarist Garrett Gleason's "Myths & Hymns", incredibly imaginative take on Adam Guettel's beautiful song cyle.
Enjoy!
