Greetings!

One of the joys of hosting PTE over the past 35 years is the opportunity to present multiple genres over a two hour period and make the flow, or non-flow, of the program interesting. This week we have creative improv, brushing on both jazz and classical realms. Then we move one to contemporary composition, electroacoustics & experimental ambient. And that's only in Phase One...

Enjoy!

Joel

Greetings!

As usual, I'm offering up a veritible cornucopia of interesting music, from brand new items to older classics and not so classic. I had no planned thematic agenda, but assembled the sets so that they made sense to me. I hope they do the same for you.

Enjoy!
