Raymond ScottRaymond Scott Centennial
Sept. 10th marks the centenary of Raymond Scott, inventor, musician, band-leader, and composer of unusual, joyful, jazzy pieces such as "Powerhouse," "Reckless Night on Board an Ocean Liner," and "Dinner Music for a Pack of Hungry Cannibals." Spinning On Air has long championed Scott's music, and this show brings long-time listeners up to date on Scott discoveries and releases, or can serve as an introduction to the work of this one-of-a-kind pop experimentalist. Host David Garland is joined by Irwin Chusid, Director of The Raymond Scott Archives.

I too want to find the name of the Armenian composer I heard in the car last night (Sept 7). It was the third movement of a symphony -- astounding. I wish I could remember the name of the composer so I could hear the rest of the symphony. - Susanna
