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!

Joel

Well, I'm off on vacation and between work and packing, not a lot of time to assemble the varied type of program you've grown to know and love. That being said, in lieu of playing another re-run, I've chosen a pair of fascinating long-form works from Markus Reuter & Kate Soper.

Enjoy!

This is the first in a pair of programs that will feature extended pieces, primarily because I am preparing, then will be travelling to Europe and felt this would be a good opportunity to present some longer compositions together a smattering of other interesting items.

Enjoy!
