	6:21pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Franco Twinkie @6:21 glad to hear... : )
	6:23pm tom tom the pipers son: i always thought "unvarnished" sound was better...:P
	6:23pm Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Freudian slip: for a hot second, I thought that Dr. Lindsay said [Fender] Strat rather than Strad.
	6:26pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @6:23 i wonder if the naming the stratocaster involved a mishearing of stradivarius
	6:28pm Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:26 One never knows, do one? Anyway, I'm a Les Paul guy.
	6:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @6:23 'Stratocaster' no doubt a riff on both stratospheric - in the mid1950s conceived of as a cutting edge mass-produced 'space age' technology... & Stradivarius (anything but mass-produced). 'Caster' as in broadcasting as an amplified Electric instrument.
	6:28pm carlos danger: what's with the anti-Ormandy snobbery? i remember as a kid all the discount cassettes at the record store featured Normandy conducting and i believe Toscanini made some snide comment about him
	6:30pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:28 yes you are right ...that all crossed my mind afterward ...like strat-o-matic basebakll game
	6:31pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: This is way more fun that WKCR.
	🎻 6:31pm Listener Robert: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:30 No, the "strat" in "Strat-O-Matic" is about strategy.
	🎻 6:32pm Listener Robert: The Stratocaster came after the Telecaster, didn't it?
	6:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Listener Robert @6:31 yes but still has a 'space aged' vibe, from the pereiod anyway .. i think there's an elision of the two
	6:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Listener Robert @6:32 Yes the Tele was earlier - a revision of the original Broadcaster & Esquire. The Strat had a contoured body - & three pickups for tone variety - a vibrato arm...
	6:34pm Ken From Hyde Park: I, too, am partial to the fugue!
	6:35pm tom tom the pipers son: fugue yeah!
	6:35pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Bach arr. Cailliet: Prelude & Fugue in F minor" b... Hey. really enjoying th show. I'ev always loved this particular song
	6:36pm tom tom the pipers son: hell-o marie in chicag-o
	6:38pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:36 Hello, Tom, Tom @) How are you feeling?
	6:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @6:38 pretty good, have painkiller for my kidney stone... thanks!... : )
	6:39pm Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:28 Oh yeah.... Fender was definitely eating Gibson's lunch for a while... Fender seen as fresh and cool, while Gibson were the stodgy old farts. Since I'm a Les Paul guy, I guess I'm an old fart LOL.
	🎻 6:41pm PaulRobeson1925: New Jersey!
	6:41pm JB: Yay my son is an alumnus of the NJYS!! 7 years, from 5th grade through high school. Great organization.
	6:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @6:39 Well of course Gibson had been making quality Acoustic instruments for a long time. What was considered Stylin' & Trendy went back & forth depending a lot on which famous people favored them... Fender was & remains to this day more affordable - to people like me.
	6:44pm Dean: Review of Ms. Lindsay in the NYT, Nov. 26, 1978... "Alice Lindsay has been a busy violist in the New York area for some years now, as a solo recitalist and teacher as well as first‐desk player with the New Jersey Symphony, the Orchestral Society of Philadelphia and, presently, with the Chamber Symphony of New Jersey. On Friday night she gave a recital at Alice Tully Hall performing a pleasantly varied program devoted to her mellow, aristocratic instrument. "The viola literature being somewhat restricted, Miss Lindsay relied primarily on transcriptions of works written for violin (Vitali's Chaconne), cello (Bach's Unaccompanied Suite No. 1) and clarinet (Brahms's Sonata in E flat, Op. 120, No.2, and an. aria from Mozart's “La Clemenza di Tito”). Most of the music Miss Lindsay arranged herself, save for the Brahms Sonata. Origioal viola pieces by Richard Arnell (Partita) and Ralph Vaughan Williams (Suite, Groupe III) rounded out the evening. "In general, Miss Lindsay handled all this music in an outgoing, even breezy manner that had its attractive qualities. Her tone is uncommonly smooth and rich when pitched properly, and her musical effects are nothing if not direct and eager to please." My query: Finzi? What say you?
	🎻 6:48pm PaulRobeson1925: Been sayin’ it for years- not nearly enough Bartók in the morning
	6:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Program def got me to thinking of Violin as a petite Viola in the first place...
	6:52pm Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:43 Agreed. Some of my fave musicians played Stratocasters - Hendrix and Rory Gallagher among others.
	6:52pm Mark T: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:03 'It's Leopold..." HAHAHAHAHA
	6:53pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:39 oh, ok, i guess it's taking it's time, eh? I wish it an immediate exit!
	6:54pm JB: Any other NJYS lurkers??
	6:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @6:52 Jimi liked his FlyingV too !...
	6:54pm Marie in Chicago: I appreciate this edification cuz what I know about classical music, I just picked up here and there
	6:56pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:06 Thank you!
	🎻 6:56pm PaulRobeson1925: @Gary! It’s Prokofiev! On the radio
	6:57pm Marie in Chicago: imagine hearing this live
	6:58pm Listener Bop Monroe: OMG this is the f'g best!
	6:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @6:54 I just enjoy it as - anything I learn about Classical - @ all - is more than I knew before. Anything I can learn about Music in my old age in a Technical sense I'm hungry to do so before I die...
	6:59pm Mark T: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @6:09 Hmm, I am an Eagles fan. Guess I will have another listen to it later this evening. However, the average Eagles fan is a beer swilling individual whose aural preferences are more inclined to the sounds of farting as entertainment.
	6:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @6:57 - right.
	7:00pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:58 Uh, huh. I hear ya'. It's like just adding more to the truly wondrous thing that is music (and it's good for our brains they're finding more and more)
	7:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:00 - well yes - & it's just an extraordinary experience.
	🎻 7:03pm ChristinaInCanada: ↳ Song: "Brahms: Hungarian Dance #5" by "Leopold Stokowski... I watched Charlie Chaplin's 1916 "The Vagabond" short and he's actually playing Brahms: Hungarian Dance #5 on his violin. Neat to see it performed in a motion picture before Stokowski recorded it.
	🎻 7:03pm PaulRobeson1925: ALLRIGHT
	7:03pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @6:53 one pcp said don't worry about it, it's small, another pcp said it was big...(3mm)... seeing a urologist soon how are things your way...?
	7:03pm The Butterman: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @6:48 We gotta get the Pidge to play some.
	7:03pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ ChristinaInCanada @7:03 I think I heard a lot of classical music for the first time in old movies
	🎻 7:04pm PaulRobeson1925: ↳ The Butterman @7:03 Goood eveninggg Mr.Buttermun!
	7:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:03 often it's the WB cartoons as evidenced here
	7:05pm The Butterman: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @7:04 Good evening Mr. PaulRobeson. Hope all is well, sir. Got seeds?
	🎻 7:06pm ChristinaInCanada: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:03 I'm one of those introduced to it by "Rabbit of Seville", which incidentally steals a gag from "The Great Dictator" and yes, Brahms: Hungarian Dance #5 is what the barber in "Great Dictator" shaves to. I supported this show when I registered because I love the lessons and the selections.
	7:06pm Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:54 For sure. Although I'm curious, how much did Jimi play the Flying V as opposed to a Strat? Leslie West was the guy who in spired me to pick up a Flying V.
	7:07pm Listener Bop Monroe: downloaded 'Easy Street' this and the music was all wrong. might make my own mix.
	7:08pm Listener Bop Monroe: this week
	7:09pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ ChristinaInCanada @7:06 Oh, interesting! I have a neighbor here from Canada, and, not surprisingly, she's very nice
	🎻 7:11pm PaulRobeson1925: ↳ The Butterman @7:05 Same to you, Mr.Buttermun. Funny you should ask about the seeds. Broccoli seeds and mung bean and Radish and Wheat Grass- very soon, soon, sooon
	🎻 7:12pm ChristinaInCanada: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:09 I lived in the US for 23 years. I also was introduced to classical music by Eugene Ormandy, as my parents had the 2001: A Space Odyssey soundtrack LP.
	🎻 7:13pm AMYGDALA: Wow, hour two seems not at all like hour one! (not that there was any issue w/ hour one). I'm a gigantic fan of banter; always love to hear Carol and Cullan's back-and-forth. The fine music seals the deal - such a great show!
	7:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @7:06 Jimi liked the FlyingV for some deeper Blues tone I think (& I'd even venture that the V has an appropriately soaring sound...) Also being a symmetrical shape - it served him being left-handed. In fact - he played left-handed models - whereas he famously played a Strat upside-down (itself a kind of Modification in fact...) I have indeed thot a collection of specifically Gibson pieces by Hendrix would be interesting ! He played an SG sometimes too... Even occasionally an upside-down Paul !
	7:23pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ ChristinaInCanada @7:12 ohhh, neat. Where did you live in the US?
	🎻 7:25pm ChristinaInCanada: I lived in Seattle, Marie in Chicago.
	7:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How extraordinary to have had such an impact on so many accomplished Musicians.
	7:28pm Kurt: Music please
	7:29pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ ChristinaInCanada @7:25 Oh, I see. You stayed pretty close. I would like to visit Vancouver and Quebec
	🎻 7:29pm ChristinaInCanada: (I find the "private browsing" window on Firefox browser cuts out the ads for me.)
	7:30pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:29 people say great stuff about montreal...
	7:31pm Dean: Montreal is great. Record stores, restaurants, and tons of porn, which I eschew.
	7:32pm tom tom the pipers son: a caveat...
	🎻 7:32pm ChristinaInCanada: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:29 I've lived in Vancouver and in the province of Quebec. Quebec has a great winter Carnaval
	7:32pm Audiocarp: ↳ Dean @7:31 You mean, there are places where you can still buy porn?! 🤯
	7:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "J. Suk, 4 Pieces for Violin and Piano, Op.17, I. ... What a performance. Slightly tinny recording of absolute gorgeousness.
	7:33pm Dean: I dunno. But you can still buy records and dine out decently.
	7:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "J. Suk, 4 Pieces for Violin and Piano, Op.17, I. ... Wow Thanks for that.
	7:34pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Audiocarp @7:32 i wonder if you'd call that "brick and mortar" or something more errr.... what would be the word...?
	7:35pm Audiocarp: ↳ Dean @7:33 Well, what did you mean about tons of porn?
	7:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Audiocarp @7:35 porn w/ very fat people...
	7:36pm Audiocarp: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:34 🤡
	7:36pm The Butterman: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:34 Empornium! I just made that up!
	7:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:35 ...in French even...
	7:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ The Butterman @7:36 ha ha...but lets drop the topic
	7:37pm Audiocarp: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:36 What have I started?
	7:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ The Butterman @7:36 v funny
	7:37pm Dean: I meant that Montreal has lots of live venues with topless dancers and such.
	🎻 7:37pm AMYGDALA: Blame it on autocorrect!
	7:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Dean @7:37 Oh. Strippers.
	7:38pm Audiocarp: ↳ Dean @7:37 Ok. Now I understand. I’m booking my flight, now…
	7:40pm Dean: Enjoy yourselves! But remember, there are also killer record stores.
	7:42pm Audiocarp: ↳ Dean @7:40 How are the prices? On records, I mean
	7:43pm hectic: i'm 15 and i've been playing viola since i was 8. for about a year now i've been having a problem with my right hand finger and i'm taking a break. i hope i'll be able to play again someday. really enjoying the show though!
	7:45pm Dean: Montreal record store prices: hard to say. I was last there in 2000. I mean, you know. I picked up some deals at the time.
	7:46pm ViolaChica: ↳ hectic @7:43 It's so nice to have you here. I do hope you will be able to play soon!

	7:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "F. Schubert, Sonata for Arpeggione and Piano, D. ... Trying to imagine what an 1810 piano is about & what the challenges are...
	7:51pm Marie in Chicago: I'd like to go to Montreal too, but not for the porn, really ;>}
	7:52pm The Butterman: ↳ Jherweg @7:46 He drew a mean Duomo as seen from the Belvedere.
	7:53pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @7:48 truly, I wonder what he listened to when he had his chiant.... (ps, never saw that movie and never will)
	7:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "F. Schubert, Sonata for Arpeggione and Piano, D. ... ! ! ! : en.wikipedia.org...

	6:39pm Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:28 Oh yeah.... Fender was definitely eating Gibson's lunch for a while... Fender seen as fresh and cool, while Gibson were the stodgy old farts. Since I'm a Les Paul guy, I guess I'm an old fart LOL.
	🎻 6:41pm PaulRobeson1925: New Jersey!
	6:41pm JB: Yay my son is an alumnus of the NJYS!! 7 years, from 5th grade through high school. Great organization.
	6:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @6:39 Well of course Gibson had been making quality Acoustic instruments for a long time. What was considered Stylin' & Trendy went back & forth depending a lot on which famous people favored them... Fender was & remains to this day more affordable - to people like me.
	6:44pm Dean: Review of Ms. Lindsay in the NYT, Nov. 26, 1978... "Alice Lindsay has been a busy violist in the New York area for some years now, as a solo recitalist and teacher as well as first‐desk player with the New Jersey Symphony, the Orchestral Society of Philadelphia and, presently, with the Chamber Symphony of New Jersey. On Friday night she gave a recital at Alice Tully Hall performing a pleasantly varied program devoted to her mellow, aristocratic instrument. "The viola literature being somewhat restricted, Miss Lindsay relied primarily on transcriptions of works written for violin (Vitali's Chaconne), cello (Bach's Unaccompanied Suite No. 1) and clarinet (Brahms's Sonata in E flat, Op. 120, No.2, and an. aria from Mozart's “La Clemenza di Tito”). Most of the music Miss Lindsay arranged herself, save for the Brahms Sonata. Origioal viola pieces by Richard Arnell (Partita) and Ralph Vaughan Williams (Suite, Groupe III) rounded out the evening. "In general, Miss Lindsay handled all this music in an outgoing, even breezy manner that had its attractive qualities. Her tone is uncommonly smooth and rich when pitched properly, and her musical effects are nothing if not direct and eager to please." My query: Finzi? What say you?
	🎻 6:48pm PaulRobeson1925: Been sayin’ it for years- not nearly enough Bartók in the morning
	6:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: This Program def got me to thinking of Violin as a petite Viola in the first place...
	6:52pm Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:43 Agreed. Some of my fave musicians played Stratocasters - Hendrix and Rory Gallagher among others.
	6:52pm Mark T: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:03 'It's Leopold..." HAHAHAHAHA
	6:53pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:39 oh, ok, i guess it's taking it's time, eh? I wish it an immediate exit!
	6:54pm JB: Any other NJYS lurkers??
	6:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @6:52 Jimi liked his FlyingV too !...
	6:54pm Marie in Chicago: I appreciate this edification cuz what I know about classical music, I just picked up here and there
	6:56pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:06 Thank you!
	🎻 6:56pm PaulRobeson1925: @Gary! It’s Prokofiev! On the radio
	6:57pm Marie in Chicago: imagine hearing this live
	6:58pm Listener Bop Monroe: OMG this is the f'g best!
	6:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @6:54 I just enjoy it as - anything I learn about Classical - @ all - is more than I knew before. Anything I can learn about Music in my old age in a Technical sense I'm hungry to do so before I die...
	6:59pm Mark T: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @6:09 Hmm, I am an Eagles fan. Guess I will have another listen to it later this evening. However, the average Eagles fan is a beer swilling individual whose aural preferences are more inclined to the sounds of farting as entertainment.
	6:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @6:57 - right.
	7:00pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:58 Uh, huh. I hear ya'. It's like just adding more to the truly wondrous thing that is music (and it's good for our brains they're finding more and more)
	7:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:00 - well yes - & it's just an extraordinary experience.
	🎻 7:03pm ChristinaInCanada: ↳ Song: "Brahms: Hungarian Dance #5" by "Leopold Stokowski... I watched Charlie Chaplin's 1916 "The Vagabond" short and he's actually playing Brahms: Hungarian Dance #5 on his violin. Neat to see it performed in a motion picture before Stokowski recorded it.
	🎻 7:03pm PaulRobeson1925: ALLRIGHT
	7:03pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @6:53 one pcp said don't worry about it, it's small, another pcp said it was big...(3mm)... seeing a urologist soon how are things your way...?
	7:03pm The Butterman: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @6:48 We gotta get the Pidge to play some.
	7:03pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ ChristinaInCanada @7:03 I think I heard a lot of classical music for the first time in old movies
	🎻 7:04pm PaulRobeson1925: ↳ The Butterman @7:03 Goood eveninggg Mr.Buttermun!
	7:04pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:03 often it's the WB cartoons as evidenced here
	7:05pm The Butterman: ↳ PaulRobeson1925 @7:04 Good evening Mr. PaulRobeson. Hope all is well, sir. Got seeds?
	🎻 7:06pm ChristinaInCanada: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:03 I'm one of those introduced to it by "Rabbit of Seville", which incidentally steals a gag from "The Great Dictator" and yes, Brahms: Hungarian Dance #5 is what the barber in "Great Dictator" shaves to. I supported this show when I registered because I love the lessons and the selections.
	7:06pm Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @6:54 For sure. Although I'm curious, how much did Jimi play the Flying V as opposed to a Strat? Leslie West was the guy who in spired me to pick up a Flying V.
	7:07pm Listener Bop Monroe: downloaded 'Easy Street' this and the music was all wrong. might make my own mix.
	7:08pm Listener Bop Monroe: this week
	7:09pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ ChristinaInCanada @7:06 Oh, interesting! I have a neighbor here from Canada, and, not surprisingly, she's very nice
	🎻 7:11pm PaulRobeson1925: ↳ The Butterman @7:05 Same to you, Mr.Buttermun. Funny you should ask about the seeds. Broccoli seeds and mung bean and Radish and Wheat Grass- very soon, soon, sooon
	🎻 7:12pm ChristinaInCanada: ↳ Marie in Chicago @7:09 I lived in the US for 23 years. I also was introduced to classical music by Eugene Ormandy, as my parents had the 2001: A Space Odyssey soundtrack LP.
	🎻 7:13pm AMYGDALA: Wow, hour two seems not at all like hour one! (not that there was any issue w/ hour one). I'm a gigantic fan of banter; always love to hear Carol and Cullan's back-and-forth. The fine music seals the deal - such a great show!
	7:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @7:06 Jimi liked the FlyingV for some deeper Blues tone I think (& I'd even venture that the V has an appropriately soaring sound...) Also being a symmetrical shape - it served him being left-handed. In fact - he played left-handed models - whereas he famously played a Strat upside-down (itself a kind of Modification in fact...) I have indeed thot a collection of specifically Gibson pieces by Hendrix would be interesting ! He played an SG sometimes too... Even occasionally an upside-down Paul !
	7:23pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ ChristinaInCanada @7:12 ohhh, neat. Where did you live in the US?
	🎻 7:25pm ChristinaInCanada: I lived in Seattle, Marie in Chicago.
	7:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How extraordinary to have had such an impact on so many accomplished Musicians.
	7:28pm Kurt: Music please
	7:29pm Marie in Chicago: ↳ ChristinaInCanada @7:25 Oh, I see. You stayed pretty close. I would like to visit Vancouver and Quebec
