NEW WEEKLY RADIO PROGRAM, "MUSICAL WONDERS," DEBUTS ON WCLV 104.9 FM
JANUARY 14, 2001-- On January 16, 2002, at 6:55 P.M., on WCLV 104.9 FM, "Musical Wonders," a new radio program from Oberlin, hits the air waves. The show, hosted and produced by Oberlin alumna and radio personality Paula Gordon ('68), poses a new question each week that explores the numerous similarities and connections between professional music making and the every day world. Gordon interviews Conservatory professors and distinguished alumni and asks them to explain the parallels between producing and listening to great music and the many other experiences we all have in our daily lives. By unveiling what goes on in the minds and practice rooms of great musicians, listeners are invited to hear that music making is a process common to what many of us feel and do all the time. Professor of Piano Robert Shannon, Professor of Viola Roger Chase, and members of the St. Petersburg String Quartet are just some of the guests who have been interviewed for the program.
The show will run for a total of 13 weeks, and each program lasts two minutes. Each installment will occur at 6:55 P.M. on a Wednesday evening. The second and third installments in January will take place on the 23rd and the 30th.
If you are interested in submitting topics for consideration on "Musical Wonders," e-mail the show at musicalwonders@oberlin.edu. Stay tuned for February's dates and times, which will be announced on the Oberlin Conservatory website.
