From the Library: Distinctive Voices

The music in today's program comes from across the globe and in a very wide variety of styles. But it all features the same instrument: the human voice.

From the Library is produced by Radio Riel in conjunction with the Alexandrian Free Library Consortium of Second Life. You can listen to the program now in-world at http://music.radioriel.org, or click one of the buttons below. Today's program is presented by Otenth Paderborn.

Tune in:

For more information on the Alexandrian Free Library, current exhibits and the work of Consortium members in general, please visit the Alexandrian Free Library website, or one of their branches in-world.

gullar sahir is happy to announce two new monthly programs with presenter Otenth Paderborn:

Not So Easy Listening premieres Thursday, February 24, 6-7pm SLT, with a listening party at the Clarendon Conservatory. This program on the fourth Thursday of each month will feature somewhat challenging or obscure music that might not otherwise fit into gullar sahir's regular programming. We will begin this series with music of the steppes of central Asia: Tuva, Mongolia, and Tibet. If you have suggestions or requests for themes of future shows, feel free to contact Otenth Paderborn.

Opera with Otenth premieres Sunday, March 6, 9am SLT, with the opera Don Giovanni by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. If you join us for the listening party at Ormsby Hall, Caledon Mayfair, there will be contests for best costume and for best twitter-ready plot summary (140 character limit). There will also be a voting machine to help determine the next opera to be broadcast on this first Sunday of the month series.
