Wintry greetings from upstate New York! I have moved my internet
Musikantiquariat dealings to another computer, thus creating space in
this mail program for more important matters. Those include such e-lists
as this one, which I would otherwise have to forgo because their traffic
had become greater than this browser could handle comfortably. My
contributions to the Moderated Classical List will be confined almost
entirely to matters of fact: repertoire, discography, performance
circumstances, and the like. My opinion battery has been irrecoverably
discharged over two decades of print reviewing.
However, if you go to:
http://wov.pioneeris.net/
you will find the tracks of opinionation revealed in a series of internet
broadcasts, which I have been hosting and programming since last February.
A liberal sample of upcoming broadcasts is offered below. All are
imminent:
Playlists for Program #44 and rebroadcast of Program #43
Four hours of classical music every Sunday morning, from 8 to 12 US Eastern
Standard Time [GMT-5], only on the internet. Host and programmer: John
Wiser Each program rebroadcast on the following Saturday beginning at 12
midnight and running through 4 AM Sunday, US EST.
