PGM 897 : "PERIGEE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : chilled electronica for the winter passage
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 1-Jan-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Here's one of life's imponderables: while our culture reaches some kind of high point during the end-of-the-year holiday celebrations, for those of us in the Northern hemisphere, the natural world is at the low point or perigee in its yearly cycle.
Beneath all the celebration, in the short, chilled days that follow the winter solstice, we find a quiet passage on the long journey to spring. We reflect on the year just past, and make plans and resolutions for the one to come. It's a period of active reflection, a time for looking both inward and outward...at once.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we aim to help that reflection, with a wintry electro-ambient journey called PERIGEE.

PGM NOTE : subtle winter skyscapes
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 15-Jan-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : The winter skies are a broad, constantly changing panorama: flat, gray shadowless light... chilled fogs with subtle, desaturated colors... dramatic dark storm clouds... and brilliant clear days, with infinite horizons of the deepest transparent blue.
The ambient music inspired by these environments displays a correspondingly wide range of tones, textures, and techniques: from foggy soundscapes and dark drones, to crystalline percussion and ethereal harmonics.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a program inspired by the winter skies called ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the evolving world of electronic sound
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 22-Jan-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : The history of electronic music extends across most of the 20th century, and continues to evolve in the 21st. And it's not just technology... electronic instruments and the electronic studio have rejuvenated old styles of music and helped create many new ones.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we borrow our title from a hot web service for electronic musicians called soundcloud.com. It's a journey in the ever-evolving world of electronic music called SOUNDCLOUD.

PGM 900 : "CINEMATRONIC"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : classical/electronic/world-fusion film music
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 29-Jan-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : And it has come to pass in the year two thousand ten, dear spacefans, that we reach another numeric waypoint in our journey together. For our 900th program special, we bring you music that fulfils what one of our artists calls "the quest for the acoustics of emotion beyond any cultural or geographic limits."
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we consider the mainstream of popular film music today: a muscular, melodic ambient fusion of classical, electronic, and ethnic "world music."
Our story starts in the 19th century with DEBUSSY, who broke through the conventions of classical orchestration with impressionistic sound paintings like "The Engulfed Cathedral." We're hearing an electronic version by Japanese musician TOMITA from 1974.
Then, almost 100 years ago in Paris, 1913, Russian composer IGOR STRAVINSKY's music for the ballet The Rite of Spring famously caused a riot at its premiere. It was too early for electronic instruments, but his scandalous combination of the symphony orchestra with primal dissonances and intense "pagan" rhythms set the stage for what has become the music of epic movies today.
On this 900th transmission of HEARTS of SPACE...a program called CINEMATRONIC.

PGM 901 : "FLOATING REVERIES"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a midwinter piano/chamber/electronic journey
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 12-Feb-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Under the gray skies and chilled atmospheres of winter, we attune to a less active pulse. Activities curtailed for the moment, there's time to dream a bit, and for that we revisit our old standby, the grand piano.
Though large and massive in the physical world, in the world of music, the piano can fly and float...on weightless waves of sound. And when combined with ambient electronics, we have a potent vehicle for travel...to deep and distant dimensions.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a piano/chamber/electronic journey called FLOATING REVERIES.

PGM 902 : "SACRED SINGING METALS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the resonant realm between sound and music
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 19-Feb-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Gongs, bells and bowls. This trio of metal instruments pack a sonic and psychological punch way out of proportion with their utter simplicity.
Long revered for their role in religious ceremonies, almost magical in their ability to delight and entrance, they stand virtually alone in the resonant space between music and pure sound. They've been joined in recent years by the synthesizer. It's not simple, but it can create sounds unconstrained by the physical limitations of vibrating materials. As you'll hear, it's a marriage made in heaven.

PGM 903 : "COSMIC TRAVELER"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : an interstellar flight on electronic wings
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 26-Feb-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Since the earliest days of electronic music, composers have developed the natural relationship between electronic sounds and images of cosmic space.
Free at last from the limits of physical instruments, they could create vast stereo spaces and sustain tones endlessly with an unlimited palette of pitch, timbre, modulation, and resonance. In time, the electronic studio became a vehicle for virtual space flight. It's a theme we've been pursuing since our 23rd program back in 1983.
The waning days of winter are a particularly good time to take a cosmic vacation. Restless from too much time indoors, we seek expansive sounds and galactic spaces, filled with dark drones or floating harmonies, a sense of adventure and discovery.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, an interstellar journey called COSMIC TRAVELER.

PGM 904 : "THE TURNING TIDE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a tuneful excursion in the Celtic soundscape
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 12-Mar-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Every year at the threshold of spring, we return to the joy and heartache of Celtic music. We celebrate a culture whose roots go back to Iron Age Europe, that became one of the foundations of western European folk music, and by virtue of waves of Irish and Scottish immigration, a major element in American folk music as well.
During the last 20 years, we had a bit of a boom in Celtic music. These days things have quieted down, but the genre is still abundant with talented musicians and superb recordings.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, another journey in the Celtic soundscape called THE TURNING TIDE.

PGM 905 : "RAINING" =--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : ambient hydrology for early spring
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 19-Mar-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : As winter unlocks its icy grip, we enter a transition time energized by the sound of water on the move. Melting...dripping...flowing...draining......raining.
In spring, water completes a journey that begins in the ocean, ascends to the clouds, falls back to earth, and ends, once again, in the sea. It's one of the core movements in the yearly cycle of life, and a powerful metaphor for the eternal cycles of stasis and flow, contraction and release.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, ambient hydrology for early spring on a program called RAINING.

PGM NOTE : a light, airy journey for spring
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 26-Mar-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : After the confinement of winter, the winds of spring arrive as a liberating force. Fueled by rising temperatures, they sweep across the landscape with a message of renewal.
Of all the wind instruments, flutes are perhaps best at expressing this sense of expansion and possibility. Add airy electronics and ethereal voices, and you have the perfect vehicle for flying on the winds of change. It's a sound that's associated with new age music at its best: relaxing, optimistic, and expansive.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we echo the spirit of the season with an airy journey (for flutes and electronics) called A BREATH OF SPRING.

PGM 907 : "PHANTOM INDIA 6" =--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : an Indian ambient journey
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 9-Apr-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : This week we update our "Phantom India" series, a group of programs dating back to the first year of Hearts of Space in 1983. The title comes from the seven-part BBC television documentary series on India by French filmmaker LOUIS MALLE.
The rich traditions of South Asian and Indian music provide an endless source of creative inspiration for new ambient music. Over the years, many western musicians have traveled to India or become students of classical Indian masters. Adapting what they've learned to today's world of digital audio, synthesizers and software, they've brought us a new hybrid: touched by the sinuous sounds, buoyant rhythms and distinctive instruments of India, while attuned to the musical languages of today.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a South Indian ambient journey called PHANTOM INDIA 6.

INTRO : The sound of a verdant landscape on a bright spring day. it reminds us of the natural environment that's nurtured us since the beginning of life on earth. Looking out, our eyes come to rest on the horizon, the distant sky and delicate clouds. These are worlds that composers of environmental ambient music bring to us, melding sounds of the natural world into their music, and creating atmospheric soundscapes for us to travel in.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a terrestrial-ambient-future journey called CLOUD OF PROMISE.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : The sound of Far East contemplative music from Japan. Despite the ferocious adoption of all things motorized and digital in East Asia, their sophisticated music traditions continue to reward the discerning space traveler. In fact, one of the principal instruments of Japan, the end-blown bamboo flute called the shakuhachi, was popularized by itinerant Zen Buddhist monks.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we listen for the sound of emptiness on a program called KOMUSO.

PGM NOTE : colossal chords, cosmic chimes, soaring flights, gentle weeping
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 14-May-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : When LEO FENDER re-designed the solid body electric guitar in the 1950s, he wanted to make it louder, cheaper and less fragile than existing instruments. Fender called his first guitar the Broadcaster, renamed it the Telecaster, and followed it up a few years later with the soon-to-be classic Stratocaster.
It seems he was thinking of electronics and...clouds. But he couldn't have anticipated that future guitarists would take the instrument out of the atmosphere completely and into deep space, adding layers of electronic distortion, echo and reverberation to create a sound that can only be called cosmic.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a tribute to Leo Fender on another installment of our long-running space guitars series called GALACTICASTER.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 4-Jun-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : The term "The Silk Road" was invented by a German geographer in 1877. He was describing trade routes that go back to the Han Dynasty of China over 2000 years ago, connecting Europe with the major cultures of the Asian world...by land and by sea. The driving force was commercial, but like the Internet today, it also enabled the spread of social communication, technology, culture, food, and music.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space....music derived from those way stations on the Silk Road...on a program called TRANS-ASIAN DIFFUSION.

PGM 914 : "DREAM TRACKER"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a neo-shamanic, techno-tribal journey
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 18-Jun-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : For several decades, a small group of Western musicians have studied the ancient practice of shamanism and shamanistic music, as a way of deepening their art and their connection to the natural world.
In aboriginal and tribal cultures from the Arctic to Australia, the role of the shaman was to bridge the human and the spirit world for guidance and healing. Today, neo-shamanism and neo-shamanistic music express a longing for direct spirituality, wholeness and harmony with nature that some find lacking in our culture.
Starting from prehistoric forms of music and aboriginal instruments like the rattle, the drum, the bone whistle and the didgeridoo, they added the ambient dimensions of electronic sound and created a new genre called "techno-tribal." Earthy and trance-inducing, it rescued electronic music from ethereal abstraction, grounded it in the sounds and rhythms of the natural world, and influenced the ecstatic electronic dance music of today.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we beat the drum and rattle the bones on a journey called DREAM TRACKER.
Shamanic poet JOSIE TAMARIN puts it this way:
The lost world waits in darkness and dream;
And in dreamworlds gods and goddesses
Beat the pulse of prayer
Dancing near blazing fires
Drumming toward greater light
Creating song from cries of loss
Fanning the glowing embers of the heart.
(quoted by MICHAEL HARNER in "The Way of the Shaman")

PGM 915 : "HYBRIDS" =--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the unpredictable world of musical fusions
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 25-Jun-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : In biology and genetics, hybrids are the offspring of two different subspecies, genera, or families... of plants or animals. Nature creates hybrids randomly as part of natural selection; humans do it deliberately and call it "selective breeding." Often the hybrids that result are stronger than the natural offspring, and we call that hybrid "vigor."
In music, hybrids (or fusions) result from thinking outside the box, creating new combinations of genres, styles and instruments. As you'll hear on this transmission of Hearts of Space called HYBRIDS, the results are often surprising, satisfying and...vigorous.

PGM 917 : "SUMMER DRUMMER" =--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : riding the rhythms of the heat to a place of stillness
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 16-Jul-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Since time out of mind, drumming has been both a musical practice and a social magnet; in the warm zone cultures of the Caribbean, Africa, the Indo-Pacific, and Latin America, drumming music is king. When the temperature rises, the blood seems to thin and the body wants to move. For most, it's a time for dancing, but for others, it's an invitation to the hypnotic state of dynamic stillness: the use of rhythm to achieve deeper levels of concentration.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we follow the pulse of the season to its quiet heart, on program called SUMMER DRUMMER.

INTRO : With record temperatures all around the northern hemisphere this summer, there's no escaping the fact that our environment is getting warmer. As the mercury creeps toward 100 in almost half the US, whether you're in the desert sunbelt, the western plateau, the stormy plains or the simmering cities, hyperthermia is the new normal, and we all need to get good at living with the heat.

PGM 920 : "BHAJAN" =--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the lyrical world of Indian devotional music
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 13-Aug-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : In the gentle world of Indian music, a bhajan is a Hindu devotional song. The word is derived from the Sanskrit bhakti meaning worship. A bhajan can be sung by a single person or a group. It can be vernacular language with rudimentary music, simple folk tunes, or sophisticated poetry and music based on classical ragas. The common expression of bhakti is spiritual feeling, lyricism and love for the Divine, which could apply to any religion.
In India, the history of bhajan has a political dimension: from the 14th to the 17th centuries, saintly musicians like KABIR created bhajans and tried to reform Hinduism as an all-inclusive faith for the common people, during a period when India was ruled by the Mughal Empire and Islam. The bhakti movement offered a path to the divine through direct experience. Today the tradition lives on in India and around the world.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, an hour of Indian devotional music by western musicians, on a program called BHAJAN.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 27-Aug-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Back in the 1990s, when electronic dance music was growing and changing every week, the exotic sounds and kinetic polyrhythms of what we now call world music were added to the mix by hyper-creative DJs and studio producers. From beaches in India to dance floors around the world, the style has morphed into a thousand colors and variations, and things have never been quite the same since.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space...we ride the good-time vibe of summer with a program of beat-y, border-crossing ambient-trance music called EXOTRONICA.

PGM NOTE : a deep space journey through cosmic starfields
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 24-Sep-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Thirty years ago in 1980, astronomer CARL SAGAN's career as a television commentator hit its peak with the PBS series COSMOS. Thirteen one-hour documentary programs filled with cutting edge astronomy and special effects, enhanced by the music of VANGELIS and a long list of classical and electronic artists, produced a worldwide hit that has been seen by over 500 million people in 60 countries. The series helped establish electronic space and ambient music as a popular genre.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we commemorate the 30th anniversary of COSMOS with a deep space journey called DISTANT STARS.

PGM 926 : "THE CROSSING"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : an ambient-electronic journey for autumn
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 15-Oct-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Rolling down the on-ramp to autumn....the world is changing faster now. The last warm days of Indian summer are a brief blaze of glory in a fading world. The light mellows, then burns, as the color palette deepens. Fruit trees make a final effort, drop their seeds, then retire for the winter. Acorns bang on the roof, and the squirrels work overtime to gather the crop. Birds head south, as spent leaves skitter across withered fields. Soon, the rains will come...with life-giving water for the next cycle.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space...we echo these changes with an ambient-electronic journey for the autumn transition called THE CROSSING. It's a metaphor for the challenge of an epic journey, across great distance and uncertain fate, with music of deep drones and complex timbres.

PGM 927 : "RUSSET and AMBER"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the dark harmonies and autumnal tones of the cello
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 22-Oct-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : In the history of brilliant unintended consequences, the cello ranks high. A descendant of the bass violin, it was invented by Italian luthiers in the 17th century, and based on a technical innovation: to make the instrument smaller, they wrapped gut strings with wire to augment the bass.
The cello's musical roles expanded rapidly in the 18th century due to its more convenient size and versatility. Today, no western instrument has the emotional range and depth; from its foundational role in the orchestra and the string quartet, to its uncanny vocal emulations and profound solo flights...the cello seems to have no boundaries.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we feature the dark harmonies and plaintive tones of the cello, on an autumnal soundscape called RUSSET and AMBER.

FIRST BROADCAST : 29-Oct-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Scorpio...gateway to the underworld. Once again we return to the dark times, the world of witches and sorcerers, ghosts and goblins, spirits...and shades. It's an emotional terrain encoded in our genes, ancient and primal, ruled by fear and revulsion, death and decay...an atavistic legacy from the days when magic and mystery ruled the earth.
Today, we have Dark Ambient Electronica to exorcise those lingering demons, an art form that conjures up strange, disturbing, melancholy worlds...with sound. Think of it as sonic therapy for your inner phantoms.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a ghostly, necromantic journey for Halloween, on a program called APPARITIONS.

PGM 929 : "TWILIGHT EARTH 4"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the gentle tones of the Native American cedar flute
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 12-Nov-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : We're in the twilight time in the Northern Hemisphere. As the autumn shadows grow longer and the light dims out on the western mesas, the sound of the Native American cedar flute once again drifts across the canyons. Soft and reverent, with an atmosphere of sweet melancholy, it echoes a quiet, reflective space within us.
For centuries, the cedar flute was used for courtship and healing by the southwestern tribes. Today it's part of the Native American music genre, and the core instrument of a much-loved subgenre of Ambient music, made by native and western musicians, with its own summer music festival in Zion Canyon National Park.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space...we revisit the southwestern soundscape and the cedar flute, on a program called TWILIGHT EARTH 4.

PGM 930 : "MIHO: JOURNEY TO THE MOUNTAIN"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : nature, art and music inspired by Japan's Miho Museum
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 19-Nov-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : The sound of the carillon at the MIHO MUSEUM, in the mountains near Kyoto, Japan. As you'll hear, it's a sublime and extraordinary place, and it's inspired some extraordinary music by the PAUL WINTER CONSORT and an ensemble of world music masters.
The museum is largely underground so as not to disturb the natural environment, with geometric glass and steel skylights illuminating the galleries below. Inside the travertine marble halls and galleries is a great art collection built on themes of the ancient and the contemporary, art and nature, East and West.
Invited to play here in 2004 by the taiko drummers of the Shumei community, the Winter Consort returned a year later to use the great acoustic spaces of the museum as a studio for the recording of a unique album MIHO: JOURNEY TO THE MOUNTAIN.
The Paul Winter Consort has long been known for their signature trans-cultural, trans-species fusion of the sounds of nature and the animal world... with acoustic World Music recorded in great reverberant spaces. The consort brings together world musicians of the highest caliber. Core members PAUL WINTER, soprano saxophone, PAUL McCANDLESS, English horn, oboe and double reeds, EUGENE FREISEN, cello, and GLEN VELEZ, frame drums, are joined here by DHRUBA GHOSH on the Indian sarangi, STEVE GORN on the Indian bansuri flute, ARTO TUNCBOYACIYAN on the duduk [a double reed instrument from Central Asia], YUKIKO MATSUYAMA on the Japanese koto, Tibetan singer YANGJIN LAMU, the drums of the SHUMEI TAIKO ENSEMBLE and the SHUMEI CHORUS.

PGM 931 : "SUBLIME AUSTERITY"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : folk, classical, and sacred music from Eastern Europe
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 3-Dec-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : Austerity...it's a word we're hearing a lot these days. It's being prescribed as bitter medicine for our collective financial situation, associated with the need for fiscal discipline, an antidote for our tendency to live beyond our means. In this context, austerity is painful, even unnatural.
The folk, classical, and sacred music of Northern and Eastern Europe often shares this quality. Born out of long winters, bitter cold, and centuries of hardship and strife, it's a sound whose beauty and power come from unadorned simplicity, purity, and authentic emotions.

=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : winter carols and ambient hymns for the season
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 10-Dec-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : According to Celtic harpist and singer AINE MINOGUE, in pagan and Celtic history, a carol was originally a dance or song of praise and joy to honor the changing of any season. In time, carols came to be used only in winter. Beginning as vernacular songs in common languages, it took centuries for them to be sung in church and associated with the 'end of the year' holy days.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, we celebrate the winter festivals of light, with a program of winter carols and ambient hymns called RADIANCE.

PGM 933 : "SACRED SONGS OF MARY"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : music of praise and veneration
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 17-Dec-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : In the Christian tradition, some of the most tender, heartfelt and exalted sacred music has been created in memory of Mary, mother of Jesus.
Veneration of Mary has been a subject of devotion in the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions since the 2nd century, while Marian hymns and songs have been part of the Christian folk and choral music traditions since medieval times.
This abundance of love has produced a wealth of sacred and devotional music that nourishes us during the winter holidays. Though not worshipped as divine, the spirit of Mary floats over Christian history like a beneficent cloud, carrying a message of eternal feminine wisdom, patience and compassion.
In 2010, our longtime guest producer for classical and sacred spacemusic ELLEN HOLMES collected her favorites for an album that's the basis for this program called SACRED SONGS OF MARY.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, Marian music from the 12th to the 21st century by JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH, GEORGE FRIDERIC HANDEL, CLAUDIO MONTEVERDI, ANTHONY HOLBORNE, JOHN TAVENER, ERIC WHITACRE, MORTEN LAURIDSEN, and more.
SACRED SONGS OF MARY...a holiday celebration... on this transmission...of Hearts of Space.

INTRO: With eerie clarity, John Surman's soprano saxophone
rings out across a chilled, silent soundscape. It could be
tundra, steppes, fjords, ice fields, or mountain valleys.
The very ambiguity of the space of this music is part of
its power. Judging by recent NASA photos and a little
imagination, it could even be a sound heard on Mars.

INTRO : Every year at Easter, we take the opportunity to catch up on the finest sounds in sacred choral music. There's something mysterious and majestic in the sound of voices in harmony. As often in the past, we turned to guest producer ELLEN HOLMES of Adagio Recordings, who brought us a bouquet of sublime pieces from the repertoire.

INTRO : What's in a "tribe"? The word returned to popular culture in the 1960s and has been in and out of fashion ever since. Of course, in most of the so-called "third world," it's not fashion: tribal societies are still the day-to-day reality, and musicians from sophisticated Western countries have been finding inspiration and vitality in tribal music for hundreds of years. It makes sense: all of us have roots in tribal culture somewhere.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a report from the intersection of ambient electronics and tribal rhythms called TRANS-TRIBAL EXPRESS.

PGM 840 : "DIVENIRE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : the contemplative minimalism of Italian composer LUDOVICO EINAUDI
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FIRST BROADCAST : 30-May-2008
SECOND BROADCAST: 22-May-2010
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
INTRO : The Italian composer LUDOVICO EINAUDI has enjoyed a long and very successful career in Europe, marked by a dozen albums, fifteen film scores, hundreds of concerts and a retrospective performance at the famous opera house La Scala in Milano.
Like fine Italian food, fashion and design, Einaudi's music has a humanized opulence and sensual appeal. The elements are simple and often repetitive, but the effect is subtle, contemplative, satisfying, even profound.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a LUDIVICO EINAUDI retrospective called DIVENIRE. We have music from across his career, including selections from STANZE, LE ONDE, I GIORNI, EDEN ROC, our title album DIVENIRE or "Become," and his lush soundtrack for the film SOTTO FALSO NOME.

INTRO : The power of music to create mental travelogues is one of its most distinctive qualities. But if you just listen to the instruments and the notes, you miss the proverbial forest for the trees. You have to let it take you away.
The "magic carpet" of biblical myth had a similar power: floating on air, it could take you anywhere. On this program, the art of travel by sound: we'll follow a path through a series of sonic worlds, flying to a place of rare beauty and deep feeling.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a journey on waves of sound called MAGIC CARPET.

INTRO : The quiet days after the Thanksgiving celebration are an interlude to rest, regroup, and prepare for the busy holiday season ahead. We turn from the dark times of Scorpio to the season of light; internalize the spirit of gratitude we feel for friends and family and the good fortune we have...and perhaps watch a bit of football while we polish off the last of those endless turkey sandwiches.
At Hearts of Space, it's time for us to return to our theme of virtual travel through music. On this transmission, an ambient acoustic journey for late autumn called IMAGINARY ROADS.
