LAGQ: PULLING STRINGS
LAGQ are the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet, a group that started out
performing classical repertoire, but who find themselves at a
crossroads between modern and classical music worlds. On their
new CD, AIR & GROUND, they play music from the Penguin Caf
Orchestra and turn their guitars into rhythm instruments from
Cuba to India. The four members of LAGQ take us between the
strings of their new music.

PAUL WINTER'S SUMMER SOLSTICE CELEBRATION IN NEW YORK CITY'S
CATHEDRAL OF ST. JOHN THE DIVINE : A SPECIAL ECHOES BROADCAST
Imagine being inside the world's largest Gothic cathedral in the
mystical pre-dawn darkness, as the instruments and voices of
Paul Winter's world music ensemble resound within the
extraordinary acoustics of this majestic space, and the great
stained-glass windows gradually begin to illuminate with the
first sunrise of summer. For the first time, the experience of
Paul Winter's Summer Solstice Celebration in New York City's
Cathedral of St. John the Divine will be shared by listeners
around the world when the dawn concert of the Summer Solstice
Celebration on June 17 is to be broadcast by Echoes on radio
stations all over the USA and by internet worldwide. The wonders
of time shifting will bring this to you on Sunday and Tuesday
evenings for most stations. But it will be dawn somewhere in the
world.

JEFF PEARCE LOOKS TO THE SKIES
Jeff Pearce has been entrancing listeners with his minimalist
textural ambient guitar orchestrations since his debut album,
TENDERNESS & FATALITY (Windchime). His collaborations include
work with Jon Jenkins, Kevin Keller and Vidna Obmana. Although
he often sounds like multiple guitar players and synthesizer,
Jeff makes all of his music on one electric guitar played in real
time with no overdubs. Through a sophisticated system of looping
and sound processing, however, he transforms himself into an
ambient orchestra. Jeff Pearce comes to the Echoes studio to
reveal the sonic architecture behind his music and latest album,
TO THE SHORES OF HEAVEN (Hypnos).

A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH ALAN STIVELL
Celtic legend Alan Stivell comes to the Echoes Living Room. The
Breton harpist influenced an entire generation and single-
handedly launched the Celtic harp revival with his early 1970's
album, RENAISSANCE OF THE CELTIC HARP. We hear Alan giving a
rare performance on a classical concert harp, playing traditional
music and original compositions that come from his CELTIC
SYMPHONY album and his latest CD, BACK TO BREIZH (Dreyfuss).
