Live on Air Today! Pledge Drive & Lost Chord Favorites

Today’s the day!

As a preamble to tonight’s rebroadcast of “The Lost Chord” (“The Most Dangerous Game,” at 6 p.m. ET), I will be on the air live for two hours, beginning at 4, to present some of my favorites from “Lost Chords” past.

Don’t forget, we are in the middle of a pledge drive, so I’ll be joined, I believe, by Alice Weiss and Michael Kownacky. Things have really been cooking the past couple of days, so there is every possibility we’ll be skiing an avalanche as we near an early end to the campaign. The focus, after all, is on raising money.

For the two hour “pre-Game,” I’ll be playing a mix of contemporary composers, vintage recordings, and light music classics of yore. If we’re lucky, apropos to World Series time, we may even get to hear George Kleinsinger’s “Brooklyn Baseball Cantata,” with Robert Merrill.

In addition, I will be offering as a special thank you gift signed copies of Robert Moran’s new album, “Game of the Antichrist,” released yesterday on the innova Recordings label – just in time for Hallowe’en. Stay tuned, then, for an interview with Moran and to listen to the title piece at 6:00.

If “the Antichrist” isn’t your thing (it’s an adaptation of a medieval mystery play, incorporating bar piano, alphorn and giant puppets), there’s always the station mug, the tote bag and the Cantus CD, “Harvest Home,” that I hope will entice you.

This will be my first live air shift since June. It would be nice if everyone supported the station under any circumstances, but if you do call or pledge online, feel free to put in a good word for me and my shows (though sometimes that information gets lost as the phone volunteers struggle to keep up).

One way or another, I hope you will help keep the station healthy by pledging your support at http://www.wwfm.org, or 1-888-232-1212.

Thank you!
