FEATURES FOR THE WEEK

Tuesday 07/08/03
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH CHRISTOPHER O'RILEY
Christopher O'Riley is a noted classical concert pianist as well as the host of Public Radio International's From The Top radio program. You'll usually hear him playing Scriabin and Mozart, but on his new album, he plays the music of Radiohead, the critically acclaimed English art rock group. O'Riley started playing this music on piano during breaks on FROM THE TOP and wound up with an album's worth of material now called TRUE LOVE WAITS: CHRISTOPHER O'RILEY PLAYS THE MUSIC OF RADIO HEAD (Sony Classical). Christopher comes into the Echoes Living Room to play live.

Wednesday 07/09/03
KAKI KING: HER WAY OR THE SUBWAY
Kaki King began her career playing on New York City subway stops. Now this frighteningly virtuoso and independent guitar player from Brooklyn has a new, critically acclaimed CD called EVERYBODY LOVES YOU (Velour Records). She's adapted the extended techniques of Preston Reed and Michael Hedges and discovered her own distinctive voice. Kaki talks about a music journey from New York subways to concert stages.

ECHOES JULY CD OF THE MONTH
ONE ALTERNATIVE-PENDULUM
One Alternative has been a fixture on Echoes since we debuted in 1989. And at that point they'd already been around for six years. On their latest CD, they continue to hone their acoustic chamber fusion sound, weaving two acoustic guitars along with oboe/English horn. One Alternative swings on rhythms that phase seamlessly from classical to jazz, draped across the intricate finger-picking of their guitars and Jill Haley's refined, lyrical oboe playing. We'll feature music from this CD on a special Echoes.

Friday 07/11/03
JASON RUBENSTEIN: SOUNDINGS AT 3AM
Jason Rubenstein is a journeyman musician who has recorded under his own name and as 3AM. Working out of a bedroom studio in his apartment, Jason mixes a jazz musician's sense of improvisation with and electronic composers sense of sound painting. His music has been picked up by TV shows like ER, but you're unlikely to find his records. He's recorded on small labels and his most ambitious release, DISTANT EARLY WARNING by 3AM is only an MP3. We travel to the home of Jason Rubenstein and hear about his music between morning and night.
