PGM 711R : "NETHERWORLD"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : a cathartic excursion for Scorpio
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 10-28-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: Terror -- a word we're hearing WAY too much of these days.
It's terrible when real, but since the 1920s, when psychological
terror made the leap from the novel to silent film, horror has
been the genre of choice for vicarious fans of the macabre, the
ominous, the morbid, the diabolical.
These are the darkly poetic images associated with the often
painful days of Scorpio. It's a taste that's both aesthetic and
cathartic: a willful immersion in our ancient limbic emotions of
danger and fear...and a defiant exercise of our impulse for
self-preservation.

PGM 745 : "A TINGE OF SADNESS"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : darkening moods of the autumn soundscape
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 10-21-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: As the expansive energies of the globally warmed months
recede (save for a parting hurricane or two...or three), we pass
through a transition marked by tertiary colors: umber, sienna,
ochre, purple, and deep green. The days grow short, the sun sinks
lower in the sky, and the sound of the season cools, slows, and
turns inward, embracing the dark ambient realm of mystery
and melancholy.

INTRO: Autumn: it comes each year with the well-known transforma-
tion of our landscape and our wardrobes, and it also brings a
darker flavor to the music of the season. On this edition of
HEARTS of SPACE, we move deeper into the autumn soundspace on
the smokey, complex timbres of the cello, the viola, and the oboe,
with a program called FALLING DARK 2.

PGM 744 "CEDAR SOUL"

PGM 744 : "CEDAR SOUL"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
PGM NOTE : soft sounds and serene spaces of the native flute
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
FEED DATE : 10-07-05
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

INTRO: The lonely, introspective sound of the cedar flute.
For thousands of years, it's echoed across the Native American
soundscape of the Southwest. These days you're as likely to hear
the sound of slot machines as the native flute on Indian land --
a sonic paradox that illustrates the challenge of preserving
traditional ways in the modern world.

Today, the native flute's been adopted by non-native musicians,
drawn to its essential simplicity and soulful tonality. It's a sound
we like to return to every autumn. On this transmission of
Hearts of Space, a program called CEDAR SOUL.
