Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left Center

6-1-24 Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left of Center - "Cello, I Must Be Going!"

Greetings!
By the time you hear this, I'll have already returned from my 2 week jaunt to the wilds of Alaska, but I couldn't resist the episode's title focused on compositions for cello and derived, NOT from the 2012 film I've never seen, OR Phil Collins' second solo album from 1982, BUT the 1930 classic Marx Brothers film, "Animal Crackers"!  
That being said, I digress.  Enjoy a panoply of cello stylings from the finest cellists and composers of our times.

I thought I'd mention that when you look at each week's program playlist, in addition to the track release info, there's almost always a link that will take you to where you can obtain more info on the artist/release and where you might choose to support the livelihoods of said artists by procuring their music for your very own collection.
Enjoy!

4-27-24 Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left of Center - TWOFER: A side: Chag Pesach Sameach! (Happy Passover!) / B side: The Music of Kevin Kastning

Greetings!
Using Teiku's new self-titled 577 Record release as a springboard (in which the ensemble interprets Ukrainian Passover melodies in the jazz tradition of Creative Music), I wondered if I could cobble a Passover oriented set with music I had in my own collection.  The fruits of such an endeavor inhabits Phase One.
In Phase Two, I wanted to focus on the incredible musicianship of guitarist/pianist Kevin Kastning and his improvisational pairings with diverse musicians from around the globe.
Enjoy!

Greetings!
This week's program certainly emphasizes "multi-genre", a concept that has always been the keystone to the programming of "Pushing The Envelope" over the past 35 years (this fall, to be technical). A quick glance at this week's playlist will make that quite apparent. Cybotron to String Noise playing Alvin Lucier to The Allman Brothers (R.I.P. Dickey Betts) in the same program... makes sense to me!
Enjoy!
