The horns are blowing, the flowers are blooming (but not where I live) and A440 is on! Hi, Bethany and fellow listeners

Helene Grimaud is one bad ass wolf lover pianist.

Yes, quite transfixing.

"Chimpanzee" sounds like the name of a hipster Brooklyn New Music ensemble.

That chimpanzee thing slipped in there as something cached in the database...gotta find out what the hell that is!

That's just Maestro Leopold "Bingo" Bingowsky, an associate of DJ Dave Abramson...

'Face of Another' is actually the name of the film - my mistake earlier. Directed by Hiroshi Teshigahara from 1966. Anyone familiar??
  8:39pm
P-90:

It's a "minor" classic of postwar Japanese cinema
  8:45pm
P-90:

It was an adaptation of a novel by famous author Kobo Abe, whose book "Woman in the Dunes" had been made into a very successful film a year or two before. " It's pretty macabre, in a very Japanese way.

I'm so curious to know how a waltz figured in to it...

I take piano lessons and my teacher had me read through some of the piano part to the debussy during my lesson tonight so it was great to hear it on the drive home. Thanks for playing it
  8:50pm
P-90:

The guy whose face is horribly scarred in an accident and then is given a very convincing mask to cover it with, dances with his wife and seduces her, as the "other" person- the face on the mask.
When the truth is revealed she claims she knew it was him "role-playing" with her all along. But did she really?

Quite a good show tonight. Are you on the summer WFMU schedule, Bethany?

Fine selections, Bethany, waltzes and non-waltzes.

Have not seen the film, but know of Teshigahara. Since you mentioned it, it is now my #1 must see--so late.

Oh, yeah! That was awesome! Thanks for the music, Bethany...
Three hours for Bethany!

I was just getting comfortable in my chair and now they're rushing me out.

Thanks, Bethany.

Thanks, DJ Bethany!

Eric in va:

Agreed this show would work well in a three hour format -- kind of ironic that the genre with the most long format material gets one of the shortest time slots

what's the music on the background as you talk around 16 mins in the show? thanks
