FEATURES FOR THE WEEK

Tuesday 12/02/03
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH KILA
The Irish band called Kila takes Celtic reels and rocks them into the 21st century. This group of virtuoso players and singers retain the roots of their Irish heritage while putting a more contemporary spin in original compositions that reach epic proportions on their latest CD, LUNA PARK (World Village). Kila comes to the Echoes Living room and unleashes their sound live.

Wednesday 12/03/03
ROGER ENO: RURAL ENGLISH AMBIENCE
In a quaint countryside village northeast of London, composer Roger Eno concocts a music full of English quirkiness, playful whimsy and subtle joy. In his attic studio called the Clerestory, Roger Eno talks about music for neglected English composers who don't exist, 20th century German composers who did exist, and a musical aesthetic that embraces trumpets and harmoniums, Renaissance music and barroom songs.

JON HOPKINS: GRANDCHILD OF AMBIENCE
Ambient music is more than 30 years old, which makes it several years older than Jon Hopkins. But this English musician plays keyboards for ambient Godfather Brian Eno and also has his own CD of chilled ambiences called OPALESCENT. In his home in England, Jon Hopkins talks about ambient sound designs and pop music re-mixes.
