    Once Removed

    Composer John Fitz Rogers likes to explore the "nooks and crannies" of music that seduce the ear. We hear the compelling title track from his recent CD Once Removed, for marimba duo. Also, the fleet fingers of pianist Alpin Hong take on Scarlatti and Stravinsky, and Terry Riley brings an eerie saloon-hall feel to his own "Circle of Wolves," written for piano in "just" intonation.

    Also Featured Tonight:

    Belinda Reynolds / Circa
    Christian Amigo / "Kingdom of Jones"
    Jacob Ter Veldhuis (Jacob TV) / Tallahatchie Concerto
    Jean-Philippe Rameau / Quam Dilecta
    Gabriel Faure / String Quartet in E Minor
    Frank Martin / Ballade for Tenor Saxophone and Orchestra
    Cyrillus Kreek / Requiem

    Does anyone know of a brass band CD or organization that specializes in summertime bandstand in the park music from the Teddy Roosevelt period? Marches, dances, etc.

    Thanks much.

    David,

    Not quite sure if this is what you are looking for however, there is a band called The Federal City Brass Band. Their website is:

    www.jvmusic.net/FCBB.html

    Hope this helps.

    Is there somewhere I can find (or you could supply) a "Now Playing" display?

    I found this, but I have to agree that a more timely method would be much preferable. Maybe if membership goes up?
