Ether Game RebootedBeginning this month, Ether Game—WFIU’s quiz show of musical fun and frustration hosted by Tom Berich—has new rules, a new scoring system, and new segments. The program will now be one hour long, airing Tuesdays from 8 to 9 p.m. Most of Ether Game’s music will continue to be classical, with additional rounds of other genres such as jazz, popular music, and Broadway. If you’ve played Ether Game in the past, you don’t need to do anything differently. Answers for the game are now on a point system. Call in with the correct answer and you automatically get four points. Don’t worry if you don’t think you know the answer, call in anyway! In addition, instead of asking for the name of the composer or the piece, we will be asking specific questions for each round. Examples can include: providing only the name of the composer, or the title of the piece, or the genre. Members of The Ether Game Brain Trust who answer the phones can offer up to three hints. But with every hint they give, they take away one point, and you may call in only once per round, so make it count! In each round, if you answer the bonus question correctly (no hints) you get an extra point for a total of five points per round. One of these rounds will be named a Super Stumper, which gives you the opportunity to earn ten extra points by answering just one question about the piece. At the end of the program, the caller or team who has most accumulated points will be the big weekly winner. A new Ether Game segment called Sight Reading will feature a local or visiting celebrity guest who will play in the studio on behalf of a randomly selected radio listener. The guest will be asked about oddball music trivia, and prizes will be awarded to the winners. On each program, tickets for all IU Theater productions and Indiana Festival Theatre will be awarded. So give the new Ether Game a listen, and let us know what you think!

Republican Presidential Debate CoverageNPR, PBS and the Washington Times are hosting a Republican presidential primary debate on Monday, March 19th in Portland, Oregon. WFIU will carry the debate live at 9 p.m. This collaboration marks the first time a presidential primary debate will be made available exclusively through the nation’s public broadcasting stations. PBS Senior Correspondent Ray Suarez will moderate along with a yet-to-be named panelist from the Washington Times. The candidates will be seated at a table with the moderators, and a small audience of about 120 will be seated in the round. Questions will be handled by the moderators and include some submitted via Twitter or other social media.

Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio DebutsFridays at 8 p.m.

Each week Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio brings you the sounds and stories of jazz with host Wendell Pierce. The weekly radio series comes from Jazz at Lincoln Center, the multifaceted program dedicated to inspiring and growing audiences for jazz. With the renowned Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and a comprehensive array of guest artists, the program advances the art of jazz by producing a year-round schedule of performance, education, and broadcast events for audiences of all ages.

According to Wynton Marsalis, artistic director at Jazz at Lincoln Center, “This season embodies what we call ‘total jazz.’ The programming takes us through the continuum of American jazz to what is being played around the world today.” “From the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra performing music of the Jazz Age, to Terence Blanchard and Branford Marsalis demonstrating modern New Orleans development, to the spicy Afro polyrhythm of Cuba, to the sultry soulfulness of Nancy Wilson and perennial favorite Dianne Reeves, there’s a concert here for everyone. “We are also excited about special first-time collaborations with legends Chick Corea and Chucho Valdes. We will be uplifting people’s spirits and creating community year round in the House of Swing.” Host Wendell Pierce is well known to fans of the HBO series The Wire. Currently he can be seen in Treme playing Antoine Batiste, the salty trombonist and occasional crooner. Pierce was raised in the Crescent City, and still spends much of his time there filming Treme and rehabilitating his old neighborhood, Pontchartrain Park.

Artist of the MonthWFIU’s featured performer for March is Karen Shaw, chair of the Piano Department at the IU Jacobs School of Music, where she has been a faculty member since 1968.

Born in Connecticut into a musical family, Shaw received her first piano lessons from her mother. She has studied with Béla Nagy, Menahem Pressler, and Abbey Simon, and received coaching from her friend Jorge Bolet. Shaw’s first New York appearance was as the winner of the Concert Artist Guild Award; she later debuted in London and Berlin. She has performed all over the United States, Europe, Canada, and the Far East, in such venues as Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and Wigmore Hall in London. She has recorded music by Schumann, Scriabin, and Rachmaninoff. Shaw has performed and taught master classes throughout the United States, Europe, and the Far East, training and assisting young pianists including Frederic Chiu, Steven Spooner, and Read Gainsford. She is the founder and director of the Silvermine Series, Inc., a non-profit organization that presents established artists and young pianists aspiring to musical careers. She has been a regular adjudicator for the Concert Artists Guild, the Kosciuszko Chopin competition, and has been a jury member of international competitions in Canada and across the U.S. She recently founded the IU chapter of the American Liszt Society, and has coordinated numerous concerts dedicated to Liszt, including a series of concerts in 2011 that commemorated the composer’s 200th birthday. WFIU will feature music performed by Karen Shaw throughout the month of March.

Featured Contemporary Composer WFIU’s featured contemporary composer for March is Joan Tower. Joan Tower is a composer, performer, conductor, and educator. Her works have been commissioned by major ensembles including the Emerson, Tokyo, and Muir quartets; solo percussionist Evelyn Glennie, flautist Carol Wincenc, clarinetist David Shifrin, and pianist John Browning; and the orchestras of Chicago, New York, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, and Washington, DC. She has also written pieces for various instrumentations including percussion ensembles, youth chorus, solo piano, as well as a full-scale ballet. In 1990, Tower became the first woman to win the prestigious Grawemeyer Award for Silver Ladders. The Nashville Symphony and conductor Leonard Slatkin’s recording of the work won three Grammy awards, for Best Classical Contemporary Composition, Best Classical Album, and Best Orchestral Performance. Her popular Fanfares for the Uncommon Woman for brass and orchestra has been played by more than 500 ensembles.

From 1969 to 1984, Tower was pianist and founding member of the Da Capo Chamber Players, which commissioned and premiered many of her most popular works. She is currently Asher Edelman Professor of Music at Bard College, where she has taught since 1972. Her recent premieres have included Stroke, commissioned by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra; Angels, commissioned by Music for Angel Fire and premiered by the Miami String Quartet; and Dumbarton Quintet, a piano quintet commissioned by the Dumbarton Oaks Estate and premiered by Tower and the Enso String Quartet. WFIU will feature music written by Joan Tower throughout the month of March.

Featured Classical RecordingsSelections from each week’s featured recording can be heard throughout WFIU’s local classical music programming. A weekly podcast of our featured classical recordings is available through our Web site, wfiu.org under the Podcasts link.

March 5–11Bach: Sonatas

(Ancalagon ANC 139)Lara St. John, violinMarie-Pierre Langlament, harp

Violinist Lara St. John has said that for the Bach sonatas, the harpsichord is rather unsubtle in accompaniment, and the modern piano heavy handed. The harp, she believes, better suits the spirit of the music. These transcriptions of five Bach sonatas for violin and harp turn familiar tunes into new creations.

March 6–18Dowland in Dublin

(ATMA Classique ACD2 2650)Michael Slattery, tenorLa Nef

John Dowland is best known for his beautiful if somber songs. On this CD, the early music ensemble La Nef concentrates on the composer’s lighthearted side. La Nef’s new arrangements of his Ayres strip them of their complex, contrapuntal accompaniments, giving them a simple, Celtic flavor.

March 19–25Canadian Brass Takes Flight

(Steinway & Sons 30008)Canadian Brass

This is the Canadian Brass’ first recording with its new permanent members: Charles Daellenbach (tuba), Chris Coletti and Brandon Ridenour (trumpet), Achilles Liarmakopoulos (trombone) and Eric Reed (horn); and the first recording the ensemble has made with their new custom-made gold-plated instruments. The repertoire features favorite encores, new arrangements, and world premieres.

Broadcasts from the IU Jacobs School of MusicAirs at 7 p.m. Mondays, 10 a.m. Tuesdays, and 3 p.m. Fridays

March 26–April 1Duo Sonidos

(Duo Sonidos)William Knuth, violinAdam Levin, guitar

Knuth and Levin seek to expand the repertoire for the violin and guitar duo. On this, their debut album, the pair performs music of Piazzolla, Brotons, Morales-Caso, and de Falla. The CD was awarded First Prize at the 2010 Luys Milan International Chamber Music Competition.

The Best of Me by Nicholas Sparks

Airs: February 27 to March 29

In the spring of 1984, high school students Amanda Collier and Dawson Cole fell deeply in love. Though they were from opposite sides of the tracks, their love for one another seemed to defy the realities of life in the small town of Oriental, North Carolina. But as the summer of their senior year came to a close, unforeseen events tore the young couple apart, setting them on radically divergent paths. Now, twenty-five years later, Amanda and Dawson are summoned back to Oriental for the funeral of Tuck Hostetler, the mentor who once gave shelter to their high school romance. Neither has lived the life they imagined, and neither can forget the passionate first love that forever changed their lives. As Amanda and Dawson carry out the instructions Tuck left for them, they realize that everything they thought they knew—about Tuck, about themselves, and about the dreams they held dear—was not as it seemed. Forced to confront painful memories, the two former lovers discover undeniable truths about the choices they have made. And in the course of a single, searing weekend, they ask of the living and of the dead: Can love truly rewrite the past? The Best of Me tells the heartrending story of former lovers who are forced to confront the choices each has made. Internationally bestselling novelist Nicholas Sparks is the author of sixteen novels, including Message in a Bottle, A Walk to Remember, and The Notebook.

Jazz NotesMarch is Women’s History Month, and throughout the month on our weekday afternoon jazz show Just You and Me we feature music from a new collection of Nina Simone’s late 1960s and early 1970s RCA recordings, which find the singer and pianist performing pop, soul, blues, standards, and civil rights songs. Our Saturday evening jazz program Night Lights also pays tribute with programs about pianists Alice Coltrane and Mary Lou Williams, as well as a show about women bandleaders such as Blanche Calloway and Maria Schneider.

Also tune into Night Lights on Saturday, March 24th for “Jazz for Mad Men,” with music and cultural commentary about the 1960s from historian Michael McGerr, just ahead of the popular television program’s start of a new season. (You can now hear Night Lights as well on Wednesday afternoons during Just You and Me.) Afterglow, our longstanding Friday evening program of jazz, ballads, and American popular song, highlights the great big band singer Helen Forrest on March 16th, including her work with Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman, and Harry James, as well as her post-World War II recordings. You can also catch tributes to Doris Day and the early recordings of soul singer Aretha Franklin this month on Afterglow, and a show highlighting the songs of lyricist Edward Heyman (“When I Fall in Love,” “Body and Soul,” and “I Cover the Waterfront,” among others). Coming up in April: Jazz Appreciation Month and much more.

From Anna to AnnaAnna Pranger, WFIU’s music library assistant, is leaving the station to work at WICR in Indianapolis, a public radio station with a jazz and classical music format. Raised in Covington, Kentucky, Pranger has an undergraduate degree in classical humanities and vocal performance, and a master’s in Music History from the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. At WICR, she will initially be responsible for programming their local classical music on their HD2 channel, and later, announcing on air. She will also be in charge of their music library, a job that will include cleaning up the station’s database, ordering new recordings for their collection, and other duties involved with maintaining the physical collection. Pranger is halfway through a thesis on a publication of masses from 16th century Nuremberg, about which, she says, “This is the last thing I have to do in order to be finished with school forever!” When her educational goals are finished, she wants to continue learning, but doesn’t plan to go for any more degrees. “I’ve had my fill of structured learning environments and the frustration and debt that go along with it,” she says. “I would love to learn more languages. Right now my strongest foreign language is German, but I’ve also taken French, Latin, a semester of Greek, and a semester of Hebrew—none of which I remember.” She’s learned a lot in the more than two years at WFIU, especially, “to allow plenty of extra time for production to account for the mistakes you will inevitably make." She adds, “Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that I would be

starting a career in radio. I’ve learned so much about the radio industry, but I’ve still only scratched the surface.” Another Anna takes over WFIU’s new music library assistant position: Anna Coogan. Originally from Seattle, she moved to Bloomington to pursue a Master of Library Science with a specialization in music librarianship, a degree program unique to IU. She also holds a Master of Music in Musicology from Northwestern University. Previously, Coogan worked at WFIU on the American Archive Content Inventory Project, which is compiling a database of original programming created at public radio and TV stations throughout the U.S. On that project, she cataloged more than 9,000 pieces of original content in physical and electronic form. She is also the office manager for the Bloomington Symphony Orchestra. In her new position at WFIU, Coogan will be responsible for programming classical music, pulling and digitizing CDs and editing tracks for broadcast, cataloging new recordings, and writing pieces for the WFIU Web site. Outside of her job at WFIU, she plays flute for the Bloomington Symphony Orchestra and for a collaborative project between IU student composers and student filmmakers. The students made short films with live, new music that were recently screened at the IU Cinema in a program called Double Exposure. Coogan is a strong proponent of new music, and is fond of quoting an idea repeated on Composers Datebook: “All music was once new.”

At WTIU, we believe that television can help you discover, explore, and learn more about your world. In other words, do more than watch TV—experience it!

• Discover the spirit of a truly unexpected, unforgettable gem of a town in Our Town: Columbus (March 5 at 8 p.m.).

• Sing along with the IU Singing Hoosiers in Make Your Own Kind Of Music* (March 5 at 9:30 p.m.).

• Take a front-row seat for the 25th anniversary performance of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Albert Hall in London (March 4 at 8:30 p.m.).

Women and PhilanthropyThe relationship between women and philanthropy has always been a strong one, but it has not necessarily been visible. This has begun to change, and women’s influence on the practice of philanthropy cannot be ignored. Women now control more than half of the private wealth in the U.S. and make 80% of all purchases. Women also tend to donate more of their wealth than men do. A recent Barclay’s Wealth study showed that women in the U.S. give an average of 3.5% of their wealth to charity, while men give an average of 1.8%. The 2011 Bank of America Merrill Lynch Study on the philanthropy of high net-worth women includes the following observations:Women spend more time than men on due diligence before making decisions about giving to a charitable organization.

• Women expect a deeper level of communication with the organizations they support and place greater importance than men on the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization and hearing about the effect of their gift.

• Women want to be actively involved with an organization and its aim, with volunteering being among the most important motivations for women to give.

• Women are more likely than men to stop giving to an organization they had previously supported whereas men tend to support the same causes year after year.

Women are becoming a bold and powerful worldwide philanthropic force—expressing their values, responsibility, and compassion through their philanthropy. As a woman, if you love the radio you hear on WFIU, make your mark! Create your legacy for the future. Contact our Gifts & Grants Officer Nancy Krueger at 812-855-2935, or send an email to [email protected] to discuss your goals.

This month on WTIU television.

• Master the tools necessary for living a profoundly extraordinary life with Dr. Wayne Dyer (March 4 at 5:30 p.m.).

• Relive the “crooners” and “canaries” of the 1940s with The Big Band Vocalists (March 3 at 7 p.m.).

• Revisit the extraordinary dialogues that fired the imagination with Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth (March 13 and 19 at 8 p.m.).

• Rock out with guitar superstar Joe Bonamassa* (March 6 at 9:30 p.m.) at the legendary Beacon Theatre in NYC.

* Be sure to tune in for special ticket opportunities during these programs!

If you believe that all people should have equal opportunities to broaden their horizons by exploring new worlds and ideas that they may not otherwise experience, then please support your public television station.
