INTERVIEWS AND CONCERTS FOR THE WEEK
Monday 07/13 and weekend of July 18th
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH WHITETREE
Ambient chamber music live
Ludovico Einaudi's music is quiet, elegant and emotionally honed and he's slowly building an international audience the same way with albums like Divenire. Recently he teamed up with Robert and Ronald Lippok as Whitetree, combining electronica, space-jazz drums and Einaudi's haunting melodies. In a rare live performance we caught them on Echoes where they play music from their acclaimed debut, Cloudland. We float on clouds with Whitetree, live on Echoes.

AN INTERVIEW WITH RHIAN SHEEHAN
Music box and spectral clocks
Rhian Sheehan is a composer from New Zealand who gets to a place of exultant stillness on his CD, Standing in Silence. It’s an album born from isolation and innocence. He rummages through his daughter’s toy box, emerging with xylophones and music boxes that he electronically deconstructs and weaves into arrangements for electronics and ambient guitar, making the music itself sound like a lost artifact plucked from the dust and silence of another culture. From New Zealand, we talk with Rhian Sheehan.

ECHOES THEN AND NOW: ALEX DE GRASSI
We repluck the strings of an Echoes icon
Alex De Grassi is among the most influential of finger-style guitarists. He's the cousin of Windham Hill Records founder Will Ackerman, but that's not why he was among the most popular and critically acclaimed artists on that label. As we near our 20th anniversary we look back at Alex De Grassi from his Windham Hill debut to his latest work.

ECHOES THEN AND NOW: PAUL WINTER
An apostle of the wilderness
Paul Winter has always linked his music to the environment, creating soundscapes from across the globe, playing with whales and wolves, traveling to the depths of the Grand Canyon and the height of Crestone. He was among the first world fusionists and his many Grammys attest to his popularity. Paul Winter has been an important part of Echoes and as we near our 20th anniversary we look back at Paul Winter, Then and Now..

AN ECHOES INTERVIEW WITH MARK DWANE
One of the legends of indie-space music takes us out of this world
Mark Dwane has been a fixture on Echoes since his debut album, The Monuments of Mars. The signposts of Mark's music are expansive, cinematic melodies, propulsive grooves and chordal sweeps that send you careening into space. His albums often have mythic and sci-fi themes, including his latest album, Other Worlds. Although he has been played on Echoes from the beginning and had CDs of the Month selections, this is Mark's first Echoes interview. View the Playlist
