What five words come to mind when you think about American music? That's what listeners have been asked to send in these past weeks.
In turn, The Classical Network's Artist-in-Residence Jed Distler responds to some of these words in putting together his playlist for the ASCAP Deems Taylor/Virgil Thomson Award winning program Between the keys this holiday weekend. Composers include Henry Cowell, John Cage, John Coltrane, Chick Corea, Margaret Bonds, Leonard Bernstein. Aaron Copland, Conlon Nancarrow and, of course, Jed Distler himself!
Tune in to Between the Keys for Your Words, this Friday afternoon at 3 PM, with the rebroadcast at 6 PM. And as a bonus, we're rebroadcasting last week's episode An American Grab Bag on Saturday at 1 PM, so you'll get two Between the Keys episodes on July 4th.
Thank you for your support!
