Harmonia for November 25, 2007
7:00 AM - 8:00 AM
[Program Website]
Today's Highlight: "Great Musician Series: Barthold Kuijken"
The Great Musician Series continues with an in-depth look at Barthold Kuijken, one of the pioneers in baroque flute performance. On Harmonia this week, we'll listen to some of his recordings which will include C.P.E. Bach and Claude Debussy as well as a live performance from an Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra concert under his direction. We'll also hear him talk about his recent projects and how he came around to adding conductor to his long list of titles
From the transcendent sounds of Anonymous 4, to the sublime realm of Chant, to the passion of an Italian Baroque violin sonata, Harmonia is drawing new listeners in unprecedented numbers to the world of Early Music.
Harmonia is a production of WFIU in Bloomington, Indiana, home of Indiana University's prestigious School of Music and the largest Early Music Institute in North America; with additional technical support from KOHM at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. Bloomington's position as a center for Early Music research provides fertile ground for concert recordings and interviews with top performers and scholars in the field.
Indiana University's Thomas Binkley Archive of Early Music Recordings, an unmatched resource for rare, out-of-print, and historically important Early Music recordings, enriches Harmonia's musical offerings. Combining this unique collection of resources with commercial, private, and archival material, Harmonia host and producer Angela Mariani brings historically informed performance to today's listeners, adding evocative commentary to illustrate, inform, and entertain.
