quartet

Windborne are a vocal quartet from New England in the US. Their tagline is 'old songs, bold harmonies' and their varied repertoire puts Corsican polyphony next to 17th Century English protest songs. They’ve found a huge following online in recent years, thanks in part to a performance outside of Trump Tower. They’re in the country for a string of local shows and festival appearances and they perform live in our music studio.

Yorta Yorta musician and storyteller Allara is also in our studio this week. Allara brings her poetry to life armed with a double bass, looping pedal and electronics. She chats to Andy about learning her Yorta Yorta Language and the enduring legacy of her old bandmate Archie Roach (she’s performing on the Archie Roach Foundation stage at this year’s Port Fairy Folk Festival).

Considering live ceremony music versus pre-recorded tunes as you walk down the aisle? Today we talk with Pendra Lee Snyder from Viva La Strings about the benefits of having a string ensemble and other live musicians at your wedding.

Andy Truscott speaks with Deb DeHart (Wilmington, DE), the founder of The Yuletide Singers.

The Yuletide Singers are an ensemble of highly experienced, professional voices that blend to recreate the unique sound of Victorian-era carolers. Dressed in elegant costumes, the quartet sings familiar, traditional Christmas carols in four-part a cappella harmony. The combination of period costumes and Victorian carols evoke the spirit of a time gone by. Numerous country clubs, retirement communities, weddings, corporate and private parties, and small towns have also commissioned The Yuletide Singers for their holiday entertainment.

Featuring Expedition Quartet Live Performance

Barbershop quartet singing is a style of a cappella music that originated in the late 19th century in the United States. It is characterized by four-part harmony, with four singers each singing a different part, typically tenor, lead, baritone, and bass.

Many barbershop quartets hold performances and concerts on this day, showcasing their vocal talents and entertaining audiences with their harmonious sound.

Barbershop music has a long and storied history, and has played an important role in American culture for over a century. It is a uniquely American art form that has spread around the world and continues to delight and inspire people of all ages.

So, whether you're a fan of barbershop music or simply appreciate the power of vocal harmony, National Barbershop Quartet Day is a great day to celebrate this unique and beloved musical style, and to recognize the many talented musicians and singers who keep the tradition alive.

PSALM 2

The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed.

1 Why are the nations in an uproar

And the peoples devising a vain thing?

2 The kings of the earth take their stand

And the rulers take counsel together

Against the Lord and against His cAnointed, saying,

3 “Let us tear their fetters apart

And cast away their cords from us!”

4 He who sits in the heavens laughs,

The Lord scoffs at them.

5 Then He will speak to them in His anger

And terrify them in His fury, saying,

6 “But as for Me, I have installed My King

Upon Zion, My holy mountain.”

7 “I will surely tell of the decree of the Lord:

He said to Me, ‘You are My Son,

Today I have begotten You.

8 ‘Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance,

And the very ends of the earth as Your possession.

9 ‘You shall abreak them with a rod of iron,

You shall shatter them like earthenware.’ ”

10 Now therefore, O kings, show discernment;

Take warning, O judges of the earth.

11 Worship the Lord with areverence

And rejoice with trembling.

12 Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way,

For His wrath may soon be kindled.

How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!

New American Standard Bible: 1995 Update (La Habra, CA: The Lockman Foundation, 1995), Ps 2.

The average Australian wedding now costs a whopping $36,000, and while for many people that amount of money is simply unobtainable, it seems more and more couples are finding new ways of raising extra cash to have the the big day of their dreams.

One of those methods is an increasing trend for brides and grooms to ask friends and family to chip in for the event, to cover everything from the meal, to extravagant extras like fireworks and luxury honeymoons, but is that ok?

The Quicky speaks to a wedding expert, and a couple of married women to find out whether this is fair game, or if it's a very rude way of getting other people to fund a ridiculously over the top wedding that you really can't afford.

Sunday 5 June 2022: The avant-garde artist Laurie Anderson at 75

Cellist and Professor, Jennifer Kloetzel's first appearance on the podcast has garnered her a top episode spot! The inspiring and insightful interview led to a second (this one) and she joins me to continue the conversation.

A graduate of The Juilliard School and a Fulbright Scholar, cellist Jennifer Kloetzel has concertized throughout the United States, Europe and Asia as a soloist and chamber musician. A founding member of the San Francisco-based Cypress String Quartet (1996-2016), Ms. Kloetzel has toured the globe and performed at such renowned venues as Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the Chautauqua Institute and the Ravinia Festival, the Lobkowicz Palaces in both Vienna and Prague, as well as prominent colleges and conservatories worldwide.

Ms. Kloetzel is noted for her elegant playing and her vibrant tone. She is a sought-after recitalist, performing concerts for San Francisco Performances and on WQXR in New York. A fervent champion of new music, she has received the Copland Award for her work with living American composers and has commissioned and premiered over fifty works, including five concertos written specifically for her. In the past few seasons, premieres included a Cello Suite by Daniel Asia, a Cello Concerto, “Cloud Atlas” and unaccompanied cello work “Lift,” which were both written for her by MIT composer Elena Ruehr and a Cello Sonata dedicated to her by Joseph Landers. Ms. Kloetzel has recorded the Ruehr Cello Concerto with the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, which was released to critical acclaim in October 2014. “Lift” is the title track of an all-Ruehr disc, released on the Avie label, and was included on Keith Powers’ 13 Best Classical Music Recordings of 2016. Ms. Kloetzel is the featured cellist on a 2019 Albany Records release of music by Richard Aldag, and recently premiered Lee Actor’s Cello Concerto, written for her in 2017. In the next few seasons, she will give world premieres of sonatas written for her by Richard Aldag and Elena Ruehr and “Inferno: Double Concerto for Viola, Cello and Chamber Orchestra” by Joel Friedman, as well as six ‘companion’ pieces commissioned to go with the six Bach Cello Suites, for a special project entitled “Mission: Bach~ The Road to Inspiration."

Ms. Kloetzel has been featured regularly on National Public Radio’s “Performance Today”
