Hospice Savannah has a traditional interest in encouraging art, and their gallery in the building on Eisenhower Avenue attracts the best of the local artists. Beth is a return guest on When The Moon Sings, and we will review the place of Hospice Savannah in the Savannah art scene and look ahead to the 40th Anniversary Party and Auction, which features works by 40 of Savannah’s best known artists. Musically, we have Jon Schmidt, Chris Botti, and Adam Hurst, among others. P.T. Bridgeport wonders if they have rental units in virtual reality, given the way things are going in real reality. Join us. 05/04/2019

Sat. 5 pm ET- This week, Wotan hosts a barbecue on the Metropolitan Opera. The party lasts well into the night, consuming most of our time slot. But there will be Norns and Gibichungs, and when was the last time you saw in decent Norn in the Coastal Empire? Siegfried should have struck to beer. Anyway, we’ll be back next week, May the 4th, with an interview and some quieter music. This is your chance to stock up on Gibichungs – don’t miss it. 04/27/2019.

Sat. 5 pm ET- No, Mr. Eliot, April is not the cruelest month, not here in Savannah. We’re past all that now. P.T. went to the beach and chose his play list there. It wasn’t exactly hot, but that wasn’t what he was there for. He’ll talk about that late in the show, but before that, we have the Scottish rock group Runrig, Miles Davis, Ed Gerhard and his Ed Gerhard signature guitar, Gustavo Santaolalla with a very long car trip, frolicking in the rain, and much more. When The Moon Sings is entering its daylight phase. Join us. “Winter kept us warm, covering Earth with forgetful snow, feeding a little life with dried tubers”, said no Georgian, ever. 04/20/2019

Sat. 5:30 pm ET- On April 13th, The Metropolitan Opera will perform Siegfried, a very long production. In the last act, Siegfried rescues Brunnhilde from the ring of fire, and that will burn, burn, burn until about 5:30. When the fire department leaves, P.T. Bridgeport will chat with artist Kathy Varadi about the show Anthropocene. In our era, atmospheric, geologic, hydrologic, biospheric and other earth system processes are altered by humans. What does that mean? Join P.T. and Kathy for a discussion. The show will run at Alexander Hall, 688 Indian Street from May 4th to May 26th. There will be an opening reception on May 10th, from 6 to 9. 04/13/2019

Sat. 5 pm ET-This week, we have Ulrich Schnauss of Tangerine Dream, Gustavo Santaolalla, John Mills (the Australian one) and his guitar, Stanton Lanier and his piano, and Opa Tsupa. Gustavo Santaolalla is a composer who has done film scores you might recognize.  His latest project is scoring the computer game The Last Of Us, Part 2, a highly anticipated sequel to (as you might expect) The Last Of Us, Part 1.There’s John Mills, the British classical guitarist and then there’s Big John Mills, who plays honky tonk.  My John Mills this week is neither one – he an Australian guitarist who plays more personal and reflective music and does it very well.P.T. reflects on the habits of azaleas from the Soapbox. 04/06/2019

Sat. 5 pm ET- Ed Eckstrand Wed, Mar 20, 8:44 AM (2 days ago) to me, WRUU This week, P.T. Bridgeport chats with Gordon Webb, who has merged technical and creative skills into a wide ranging career. Gordon taught media-related classes at both Cornell and Ithaca college and has a substantial background in media of many kinds, not just photography. Gordon is currently the proprietor of GW Productions, a fine art photographer, and something of an authority on Rod Serling. Join us for this wide ranging discussion.

Sat. 5 pm ET-We start with an Ulrich Schnauss tune called Monday – Paracetamol. After hearing it, I was curious about what paracetamol was, so I looked it up. It’s acetaminophen, nothing more. It seems quite a bit more potent when portrayed by an electronic orchestra. Schnauss is now based in London and has been a member of Tangerine Dream for a number of years. After that, Adam Hurst and his cello with a tune called Sacrament. Many of his works have names related to religion, and his music does sound somewhat religious, though I’m not sure which one. After that, Cathy Oakes, Lynn Patrick, and a whole lot of people named Michael – there’s much piano and guitar work there. This week, P.T. contemplates the aftermath of Saint Patrick’s Day. Maybe Ulrich Schnauss is right about acetaminophen after all. Join us. 03/16/2019

Music this week from Marc Enfroy, Ed Gerhard, and John Mills, among others, Ed Gerhard and John Mills who write and play thoughtfully and with feeling.
