FEATURES FOR THE WEEK Monday December 13, 1999 EDGAR MEYER & JOSHUA BELL: CLASSICAL BLUEGRASS Take one classically trained and bluegrass bent bass player, mix with one classical violin virtuoso and add in a mandolin wizard and string eclectic and you have a pretty interesting sonic combustion taking place. That's what happens on Short Trip Home (Sony Classical) when Edgar Meyer, Joshua Bell, Sam Bush and Mike Marshall get together for some original bluegrass chamber music. We talk with all four about their musical marriage. Wednesday December 15, 1999 25 ESSENTIAL ECHOES CDS FOR 1999 This year, the listeners pick their favorite Echoes CDS for 1999. Thursday December 16, 1999 TRACY SCOTT SILVERMAN'S VIOLIN MANIFESTO Tracy Scott Silverman has appeared on countless Windham Hill samplers, produced the lullaby collection "On a Starry Night" and was a member of the Turtle Island String Quartet. On his solo debut, "Trip to the Sun" (Windham Hill) he shows a wider range of music interests including duets with minimalist pioneer Terry Riley, a cover of Jimi Hendrix's "1983" and a penchant for multiple violin overdubs. Tracy Scott Silverman talks about his string fever. Friday December 17, 1999 GEORGE WINSTON-UP FROM THE PLAINS George Winston's music has always been influenced by his childhood in Montana. On his latest CD, "Plains," he returns to those themes, writing original music and picking an eclectic array of cover tunes from Hawaiian slack key songs to Sarah MacLachlan tunes. Winston talks about his wide-ranging influences and imagistic piano sound. ***************************************************************** *denotes compilation ID# 99-J07-00247 Monday, December 13, 1999 (Echoes Program 40E) ARTIST SELECTION RECORDING First Half Hour Michael Hedges Rickover's Dream Aerial Boundaries Jon Hassell Wide Sky Fascinoma Jim Matheos The Language of Away with Words Silence Clara Ponty Echo The Embrace Steve Roach Trip the Light Light Fantastic Second Half Hour EDGAR MEYER & JOSHUA BELL: CLASSICAL BLUEGRASS Joshua Bell & In the Nick of Short Trip Home Edgar Meyer Time Jason Carter Luna Eclipse Rachel's The Mysterious Selenography Disappearance of Louis Le Prince Kevin Keller Convergence Pendulum Third Half Hour Ashit Desai Enlightenment Divinity William Coulter The Parting Grass The Crooked Road Anne Dudley Canticles of the Ancient & Modern Sun & Moon David Parsons Laplapan Ngaio Gamelan Fourth Half Hour Spacecraft Cycles Earthtime Tapestry Mike Oldfield Embers Guitars George Winston Before Barbed Plains Wire Miriam Stockley Rowenzori Miriam Coyote Oldman Walk in My World House Made of Dawn Hevia Si La Nieve Tierra de Nadie ****************************************** WANT TO ADD ANY OF THESE CDS TO YOUR COLLECTION?
