OTTMAR LIEBERT: IT'S NOUVEAU AGAIN
On his latest album, "Innamorare"(Epic), Nuevo Flamenco guitarist
Ottmar Liebert goes back to the sound that launched his career.
Gone are the moody ambiences of "Opium" and the moody
impressionism of "Leaning Into the Night." Liebert talks about
his happier, more buoyant music, born of marriage, Italy and the
spaces of Sante Fe.

IRA STEIN-BACH IMPROVISATIONS
Johann Sebastian Bach has always been a source of inspiration for
modern musicians. In the 60s, Dave Brubeck adapted a Bach fugue
for "Blue Rondo ala Turk," Procol Harum lifted another for "A
Whiter Shade of Pale," Wendy Carlos launched the synthesizer with
"Switched-On Bach" and the entire classical rock movement was
built on the Bach's back. Now pianist Ira Stein is taking a
swing at the baroque master. Best known for his New Age hit,
"The Underground" in the duo of Ira Stein & Russell Walder, he
now has a new album called "Bach Improvisations," setting Bach
chorales for his chamber trio of cello and saxophone. And like
Bach, Stein also plays in a church. We go to church to talk with
Ira Stein about improvising on Bach.

A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH MICHAEL BROOK & DJIVAN GASPARYAN
Late last year, guitarist Michael Brook collaborated with
Armenian doudouk master Djivan Gasparyan on the album Black Rock
where Brook wed Gasparyan's mournful melodies to ambient
atmospheres and swampy grooves. They played in public for the
first time this past summer at the WOMAD festival in Seattle. We
caught them in the more intimate space of the Echoes living room,
for a live performance.

TEN ARTISTS FOR TEN YEARS OF ECHOES--R. CARLOS NAKAI
One of the first living room concerts we recorded was in R.
Carlos Nakai's home in Tucson. He's played live on the show three
times since then and been featured four times. R. Carlos Nakai
single-handedly launched the Native American Music scene with
just a simple cedar flute. He's expanded his traditions to
embrace pianist Peter Kater, guitarist William Eaton and the
Japanese Wind Travelin' Band. We talk with R. Carlos and many of
his collaborators to reveal Native music with universal
resonance.
