Mixed Up Class Playlist, October 7, 1996

The first hour of this program combines the violin with different instruments: first, violin with computers (ca. 1968 and 1985), then violin with pipe organ, and finally, violin as member of a string quartet.

Hour 2 features early American music with an emphasis on William Billings, on the modern-calendar transposition of the 250th anniversary of his birth.

The final hour of this program, in commemoration of the past week's St. Francis Day (October 4) portrays animals in various musical forms. Peter Schickele's Bestiary combines sonic effects with visual pantomime of the creatures in question, while Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows, set to music by John Rutter, portrays animals with human-like behavior.
