Greetings! This week's program has no particular theme, rhyme or reason outside of including some brand new things which reminded me tonally of not so new things which allowed me to fill up Phases One & Two. Enjoy! Joel e-mail: [email protected] Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/...

Greetings! One of the joys of hosting PTE over the past 35 years is the opportunity to present multiple genres over a two hour period and make the flow, or non-flow, of the program interesting. This week we have creative improv, brushing on both jazz and classical realms. Then we move one to contemp...

Greetings! As usual, I'm offering up a veritible cornucopia of interesting music, from brand new items to older classics and not so classic.
