Listen, listen... radio buttons

| 4 Comments

Just added two little buttons to the sidebar of this page. True radio buttons. By clicking on them and then a bit further, you will be able to listen to npr.gif, the quite excellent National Public Radio (for our non American readers.)
If you are in the States, take a look at (or lend an ear to) the quite excellent programming available via BBCi.gif I have been listening to some Peel Sessions on BBC1 earlier and am now listening to BBC3 and their “Discovering Music” broadcast. (This Week’s Broadcast is on Igor Stravinsky’s ‘Firebird’, and it is very entertaining.) All highly recommended. Since the Stock market feels a bit like 1929 anyway, why not turn your computer into a radio imagine it is the good old Radio Days again. Cheers.

please listen to the “Discovering Music” show. It is quite a fantastic show. Very well done, really. Quite an educational, mind opening experience really.

Wait, it gets even better than that. There is a BBC - Radio3 - Discovering Music on BBC Radio 3 ARCHIVE! Quite incredible.

The series is unique because of the way it uses specially-recorded examples to take the music apart. Longer examples put brief analyses into context, so that each programme bridges the gap between an analysis and a concert performance of a piece of music. Discovering Music always ties into a complete performance of the piece happening that week on Radio 3. Listeners then have the chance to re-experience the music with different tools for listening and new insights. wow.

um how does one add two buttons ?
sorry.
