According to the folks at NationalDayCalendar.com, pianos not only get an International Piano Day on March 27th (the 88th day of the year, a wink to the piano’s 88 keys), but also a National Piano Month during September.
Therefore, today is a piano extravaganza with numerous new releases peppered with some excellent older chestnuts, including a "faux piano" piece cobbled together by yours truly.
Enjoy!

Greetings!
International Strange Music Day, celebrated annually on August 24, was created by Patrick Grant, a New York City musician and composer. The premise of the day is simple: to get people to play and listen to types of music they have never experienced before.
He believes that broadening people’s musical spectrums can also change the way that society looks at other aspects of life – his mantra is ‘listening without prejudice’.
It is that spirit which today's program honors. Thank you, Patrick!

"What's in a name?" According to the Farlex Dictionary of Idioms: "What someone or something is called or labeled is arbitrary compared to their or its intrinsic qualities. A reference to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, in which Juliet bemoans Romeo's last name of Montague, her family's sworn enemies."
Today's selections were chosen primarily based upon their titles. I suspect that naming pieces of music is meant to communicate some type of message from the composer. Whether it's meant to be narrative, technically descriptive, relay emotion or humor, be provocative, employ a total non-sequitur or present any combination of the above, the title is often the first piece of information related about any given piece of music. ("Have you heard_________?") Let's see how arbitrary the titles of today's playlist turn out to be.
Enjoy!

Welcome to another veritable potpourri of music, with phase one featuring new releases from the folks at 577 Records which segues through the Paul Flaherty release to focus on various assemblages featuring Jim Matus (who I once had the honor of seeing play in his Hartford, CT apartment), then over to an old friend, harmonic overtone singer & CT denizen, Jim Cole (who I took some overtone singing lessons from, back in the day). The balance of the show highlights mostly newer independent releases.
