    Orion Rigel Dommisse

    Named for both a constellation and its brightest star, Orion Rigel Dommisse nevertheless writes very down-to-earth songs about the astronomy of the human heart. She creates her own insular but engrossing world of music as she sings, accompanying herself on an electric cello which she plucks like an oversized guitar. Orion joins host David Garland in the WNYC Studio to talk about her music and the emotions behind it, and to perform with both her cello, and at the grand piano.

    For some reason I can't figure out what is playing right now on WNYC...

    Should there not be a quick link on your home page labeled somethink like "live right now" that would tell me?

    I have been searching on you site for the last 5 minutes and was not able to figure out you were playing a Mozart trio until the announcer told me. I looked in the schedule and also under the "QUICKLINK" heading....

    Thanks

    Would like to know the first name of the daily

    5 AM news announcer, Mr.Johnson. I enjoy listening to the news every AM and especially

    like his voice.

    Kind of a funny place to ask the question but the answer to it is "Soterios Johnson". His bio is halfway down the page below.
