All Things Classical
Where to Tune In
This summer, WGBH is celebrating classical music in a big way: on television, on our 99.5 All Classical radio service (also online at 995allclassical.org), out in the community and
here in our Brighton studios.
And what better way to launch this celebration than with an all-star
program on WGBH 2 (and PBS stations around the country) marking the
125th anniversary of the Boston Pops (see page 14). During the last 80 years,
just three conductors have led this Boston treasure: Arthur Fiedler, John
Williams and Keith Lockhart. Each has served as a remarkable ambassador,
offering up accessible
pieces that resonate
with veteran listeners
while also welcoming
new fans into the classical tent.
“Keith is a great
curator and guide,” says WGBH Radio’s Jon
Solins, program director
for 99.5 All Classical.
“That’s why we’re also
delighted to present ‘Keith’s Classical Corner’ weekday mornings with 99.5
host Laura Carlo. He shares the story behind his ‘pick of the day,’ helping listeners connect more deeply with the music.” This month and next, we’re
featuring the Pops on 99.5, including a live broadcast of the orchestra’s popular July 4th concert from the Esplanade, guaranteeing you a front-row
seat for the musical fireworks.
Our new all classical radio service is dramatically expanding our opportunities to showcase the cultural riches at our doorstep. On June 10, the 99.5 team heads north to bring you the opening-night premiere of the
Rockport Chamber Music Festival from Rockport’s new Shalin Liu Performance
Center. In July, we head to Tanglewood to bring you all three Boston
Symphony Orchestra concerts live from the Koussevitsky Music Shed, every
weekend throughout the summer. “WGBH has more than doubled the number
of BSO concerts we’re featuring each year—from 26 to 62,” says Jon. “We’ve
always wanted to provide a larger stage for the BSO. With 99.5 All Classical,
now we can.”
And speaking of firsts, mark your calendar for Saturday, June 19 for our
99.5 All Classical Music Festival at our WGBH studios (see page 2). To date,
more than 55,000 people have come through our doors for screenings, tours,
concerts and discussions. This festival takes WGBH’s role as a public convener
to a whole new level. I hope you’ll join our classical hosts and me for an afternoon of performances, presentations and salons by area vocal, chamber and
contemporary music groups. You’ll also get a chance to connect with some of
the wonderful music organizations we partner with throughout the year.
Come see, and hear, what your generous annual support makes possible!

Movie House Monkey
If George and the Man with the Yellow Hat can show Mr. Glass a truly
unique movie theater experience, he promises to save the old Bijou
from being demolished. So, with the Doorman and Hundley’s help,
they restore the theater to its original pristine beauty and all goes well
until the music gets jumbled, the
film breaks, and a popcorn explosion
accompanies a volcanic eruption on
screen!

Easy Yoga for Arthritis with Peggy Cappy
There is no better teacher to show you how to use
yoga as an effective pain relieving strategy than
Peggy Cappy. Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the US, affecting some 37 million people.
It can affect almost any joint, but most commonly
strikes hips, knees and fingers. Cappy will show how
yoga can relieve stiffness, reduce pain and fatigue,
and improve muscle and bone strength.

Inside the Paris Opera

For his 38th film, master documentary filmmaker Frederick
Wiseman turns his unblinking eye
on one of the world’s leading ballet companies, the Paris Opera
Ballet. Cinematographer John
Davey’s camera roams the company’s home at the vast Palais Garnier Opera House from top to bottom—gliding down chandelier-laden corridors to the theater’s
labyrinthine underground chambers, pausing to observe from the
sidelines of light-drenched rehearsal studios, and watching rigorously
trained young dancers in rehearsals and performances for seven different ballets.

Jackson was a patriot, and a traitor. He
was the greatest of generals, and wholly
ignorant of the art of war. He was the
most candid of men, and capable of the
profoundest dissimulation. He was a
democratic autocrat, an urbane savage,
an atrocious saint.” Martin Sheen

Ask Not. As wars rage in the Middle East, the US military is eager for more recruits—unless they happen to be openly gay. This documentary explores the tangled political battles that led to the infamous “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy and reveals the personal stories of gay Americans who serve in combat. 44 Nova Rat Attack. Once every 48 years, forests of the bamboo known as Melocanna baccifera go into exuberant flower in parts of northeast India. And then, like clockwork, the event is invariably followed by a plague of black rats that spring from nowhere to spread destruction and famine in their wake. For the first time on film, Nova and National Geographic capture this massive rat population explosion in the kind of vivid detail not possible in 1959, when the last invasion occurred.

This documentary examines the life of radical attorney William Kunstler from a surprising angle. Kunstler’s two daughters from his second marriage grew up lionizing a man already famous for his historic civil rights and anti-war cases. Then, in their teens, they began to be disillusioned by a stubborn man who continued representing some of the most reviled defendants in America—this time, accused rapists and terrorists. In this intimate biography, Emily and Sarah Kunstler seek to recover the real story of what made their late father one of the most beloved, and hated, lawyers in America.

Tearing It Down
Explore how the historic and dramatic November 1989 fall of the
Berlin Wall helped end the Cold War without a shot being fired. The Wall examines the lives of ordinary people caught up in Cold War
politics: a young father forced to tunnel beneath the wall to reunite his
family; a teenager whose love of pop culture got him in deep trouble
with the state; a student activist helping make a peaceful revolution
while facing down tanks; and a young man broken by the ruthless
interrogation methods of the secret
police. The film also goes behind
the scenes with political leaders to
reveal the tense moments surrounding the wildly unexpected
series of events that resulted in a
new Europe in less than a year.

International Harp
Competition,
which is held
every three years
in Bloomington,
Indiana, is arguably the most
prestigious competition for harp.
Roughly 30 players from around the
world compete for first prize, which
will almost certainly catapult the winner into a career as a first-class musician. The winner of the 2007 competition, for example, is now principal
harpist with the Bolshoi Ballet. Each
performer must learn and master 13
separate compositions, including an
entire concerto for orchestra and harp.
In the end, only three players will play
every piece; at each stage of the fourstage competition, half the competitors are cut. Footage was captured in
Moscow, Zurich, Paris and the USA.
Blythe Danner narrates.

8pm 2 American Masters
Andy Warhol (Pt. 1). No
artist in the second half of the
20th century was
more famous—
or, perhaps, more
famously misunderstood—than Andy Warhol. This
two-part film, directed by Ric Burns,
explores Warhol’s astonishing artistic
output—from the late 1940s to his
untimely death in 1987—paintings,
drawings and photographs, films and television, books, magazines and
musical performances. Set within the turbulent, changing context of his
life and times, this portrait is the first
to move deeply into the immense
archives at the Andy Warhol Museum
in Pittsburgh, the city of his humble
origins. Obsessed with fame and a
desire to transcend those origins,
Warhol uniquely grasped the realities
of modern society—the function of
celebrity and of the mass media— and became the high priest of one of
the most radical experiments in
American culture, permanently penetrating and redefining the barrier
between art and commerce.

Shades of Baseball
The fifth “inning” of Ken Burns’s landmark
nine-part 1994 film Baseball looks at baseball’s desperate attempts to survive the
Great Depression and Babe Ruth’s fading
career, while a new generation of stars,
including Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams, is
on the rise. It also presents the parallel
world of the Negro Leagues, which thrived in
the shadow of the Major Leagues. The inning
culminates with the greatest showdown in
the history of the Negro Leagues: Satchel
Paige, arguably the best pitcher ever, against Josh Gibson, “the black
Babe Ruth,” in the Negro League World Series. Look for a new update
to the series, The Tenth Inning, in September!

Radio Spotlight
Phillip Martin Joins WGBH News Team
89.7 WGBH’s expanded focus on local news, issues and analysis means some new voices on our air, but also old friends. Phillip Martin
who joined the 89.7 WGBH news team in March, was one of the original producers involved in the
development of WGBH’s award-winning international news series The World. During the last
decade, Martin has worked in some of public
radio’s hottest spots—as a producer of NPR’s On Point with Tom Ashbrook, as a senior editor
at NPR West, and as NPR’s first and only National
Race Relations correspondent. Now he’s back at
WGBH as an investigative reporter for 89.7 while
continuing his work on The World’s Color Initiative,
a series of reports that examine complex global
issues related to color.
A former Nieman Fellow at Harvard, Martin
has won numerous awards, including a National
Association of Black Journalists Award for best
radio documentary for his NPR series South Africa:
Ten Years Later. Now a resident of Cambridge,
Massachusetts, Martin has a master’s degree in
law and diplomacy from Tufts University, and studied international protection of human rights
at Harvard Law School.
WGBH’s Jen Goebel recently caught up with
Martin to talk about his new role at WGBH.
Q
A
How did you get your start in radio?
I started as a commentator for NPR, working
on issues of international development and
child welfare worldwide. One of my first assignments was in South Africa, at the time of the dissolution of apartheid and the election of Nelson
Mandela. It was a fascinating moment in history.
My interest has been in reporting on issues of race
beyond the traditional paradigms of black and
white to really examine ethnic conflict.
Q
A
What do you like about working in
radio?
Radio is my first love. I love the fact that we
have to imagine what we’re hearing. I was
recently reporting from Turkey for The World on
the attempted coup, and in my reports I described
the call to prayer in Istanbul and the sky—things
you can do in radio that you wouldn’t on TV
because it would be visual—and obvious. Radio
forces you to write better, and more descriptively.
Martin covered the attempted coup in Turkey for The World in February 2010.
Q
A
What brought you back to WGBH?
When 89.7 WGBH expanded its role in news,
they got in touch with me to see if I was
interested in doing investigative reporting—and I was. It’s an extraordinary opportunity to do in-depth reporting in an area that’s so rich with
stories. I love the idea of working on local issues.
It’s been said a million times, and I think it’s true,
that before you can know the world, you really
have to know what’s right in front of you. WGBH is
clearly intent on making an impact with a focus on local stories, and I think we will do that.
Q
A
How does your extensive international
reporting experience play into your
local reporting?
In 2010, already I’ve been to Japan, the
Philippines, and Turkey, all as a reporter on
the Color Initiative for The World. I’m also working
on a series on world religions for The World, and
I’ll continue doing that even as I do special reports
for 89.7 WGBH. I think that having a wider and
universal perspective is useful in any reporting.
In doing a series on New England fisheries regulations called “30 Years of Days at Sea” (which will
air in July), I noticed parallels between what’s
going on here and what I saw in other places. I was in Malta in October, and just as I was leaving,
the European Union imposed its annual twomonth moratorium on fishing. To see the impact
on the fishing fleet in Malta was quite interesting,
especially when compared to what’s going on here
in New England. Fishermen here and fishermen
there complain about the same things: quotas,
restrictions and government regulation.
Q
A
What do you think of 89.7 WGBH’s
format change?
I like having two public radio news stations
in the city. I think it pushes everyone’s game
a lot higher, and it increases interest in public
radio. And I would even say it’s high time, pun
intended.
Q
A
What would you like to see happen in
public radio in the future?
I’d like to expand our reach. Public radio is
an incubator of sorts, and can help develop
all types of voices—from different nationalities,
religions, and backgrounds that ultimately serve to
bring in a more diverse audience.

Joe Strummer’s London Calling, Episode 1
Joe Strummer, the legendary gravel-voiced punk-poet from The Clash, loved
to listen to music on the radio. Even as he toured the world with “the only
band that matters,” he still had a dream to one day spin records for the BBC
World Service, where he heard the latest UK hits over the shortwave band as
a teenager in Africa. He finally got his wish in 1999, when BBC World Service
premiered Joe Strummer’s London Calling.

“Musical Masterpiece” Memories
By Jon Solins, program director for 99.5 All Classical
I listened to classical music on the radio when I was a kid,
but I was fortunate enough to have some classical recordings as well. My parents, freshly-minted suburbanites in
the 1950s, bought a new record player for the house and
signed up for the Musical Masterpiece Society (MMS), a
service that offered classical recordings on a subscription
basis. These would arrive in the mail on unusual 10-inch discs, packaged
in a standard album cover with very formal images of the great composers
as a border and the title of the piece in the middle. The discs might be
red or blue, and sometimes they were even transparent…very exotic
items for a youngster used to stolid old black!
I remember lying on the living room floor on weekend mornings and listening to these records as I watched the sunbeams streaming in
through the windows. Two of them made lasting impressions. I loved the
bold brassy opening of Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony and the way the
different orchestral choirs tossed the music back and forth. But most of
all, I remember that in order to fit the whole symphony on a 10-inch disc,
the second movement was interrupted just after the opening oboe
solo—I had to jump up and flip the record to hear the rest of the movement. For a long time I thought there was supposed to be a big break in
the symphony at that point. I was surprised to find out that on other
recordings the musicians just kept right on playing!
The other MMS recording I remember was a lovely performance of
the Mozart Clarinet Quintet. I was just beginning to play the instrument
myself, and this gorgeous piece made me think that all the squeaking
and puffing might somehow be worth it. I didn’t stick with the clarinet,
but to this day that Quintet is just about my favorite piece of all.
Recently I learned that the MMS was the brainchild of David and
Sam Josefowitz, brothers who made their own recordings in Europe and
then issued them here on 10-inch discs, in part because these were easier
to mail than the standard 12-inch size. The affordable and convenient
subscription system they developed played a big role in bringing LPs of
classical music into the households of post-World War II America.
Awkward movement breaks aside, I’m glad they did.
