Podcast 011: September Songs - September 30, 2005
It's a melancholy time sometimes. The fall, the autumn, the equinox.
What music brings back memories for you of the autumns of your life?
I'll go through some of my favorites.
Opening the show: Stan Kenton, the Four Freshmen, and June Christy,
"September Song," c.1962. June Christy persuades her damaged
voice to give up one more performance of this classic, originally written
for Knickerbocker Holiday by Kurt Weill. The trombone choir
is magnificent.
The Innocence Mission, "Beginning The World," 1989
Paul Desmond, "Autumn Leaves," 1961
John Denver, "Rocky Mountain High," 1971
James Taylor, "Carolina In My Mind," 1972
Antonio Vivaldi, "Winter," from The Four Seasons, concerto
for violin.
Again, if you can help with Hurricane Katrina relief, check the September
3 podcast page (one previous to this one) for details on how to give.
