    Happy New Year, everyone!

    2016 is poised to be a most curious, wonderful and disorienting one, with enormous professional and personal changes ahead. I hope yours is a good one.

    If you’re a late riser after the intensity of last night’s revels, or if you find you just can’t take another “bowl” game, you might find an hour’s respite in music from time travel movies, on this week’s “Picture Perfect.”

    We’ll hear selections from “The Time Machine” (1960) by Russell Garcia, “Time After Time” (1979) by Miklós Rózsa, “Somewhere in Time” (1980) by John Barry, and “Back to the Future” (1985) by Alan Silvestri.

    That’s a time travel toddy for New Year’s, tonight at 6 ET, with a repeat tomorrow morning at 6. Or you can enjoy it later as a webcast at wwfm.org.

    What are you doing New Year’s Eve? I’ll be trying to take a nap in anticipation of doing the overnight at WRTI. So keep it down, if you please!

    My recorded interview with music director Daniel Spalding will air as part of WWFM’s live broadcast of the New Jersey Capital Philharmonic Orchestra’s celebratory concert at the Trenton War Memorial tonight at 8 p.m. You can listen to the concert live at 89.1 FM or online at wwfm.org. Or you can pick up a ticket and still be guaranteed to reach your party or get back home by about 10:30.

    Last week’s newspaper article, about the concert, appeared on Christmas Day, thereby getting lost in the shuffle. Click here to read my piece about the New Jersey Capital Philharmonic’s New Year’s Eve concert in the Trenton Times.

    BTW – I failed to mention, today is “At Your Request Day” at WRTI. If there’s something you’re dying to hear, fill out this form, and we’ll endeavor to get it on the air for you between noon and 3:00. (I’ll personally be here until 2.) Good luck!

    When you’re finished listening to Marvin Rosen’s dance party (on Classical Discoveries, from 5:30 to 11 a.m., on WPRB 103.3 FM or at wprb.com), consider sharing your second cup of coffee with me, over at WRTI. I’ll be spinning the platters from 10 to 2, on 89.1 FM (Philadelphia) or at wrti.org. A full list of frequencies available at the station’s website.
