You can help keep
Encore on the air:
Encore is a one-man
operation. WRMI and Channel 292 are very
generous with their air-time but Encore still
costs around 200 Dollars/Euros a month to
broadcast.
If you can - send a small contribution to
help Encore keep going.
There is a PayPal donation button now on
the homepage of the website - www.tumbril.co.uk -
which folks can use if they want to. If PayPal is
no good for you then send me an email and we'll
sort something else out.
Thank you.
A big thanks to the folks who have donated
already.
This week's Programme - First broadcast this
coming Saturday on Channel 292 - starts with a nocturne by the composer credited
with inventing the form - John Field. Then three of
John Betjeman's poems set to music and sung, some of
a violin sonata by Franz von Biber -
revolutionary for its time (the 17th century). Next
- some Bartok - Rhapsody for Violin and Orchestra,
followed by part of a string quartet by Aaron
Copland. Three pieces finish off the hour - a
traditional Georgian Chorale, Some Telemann, and an
arrangement of La Folia by Vivaldi.
Channel 292 can be pulled live
off the internet if the reception is poor in your
location. Easy to find their site with a google
search.
