Kevin Kline on ProfilesSunday, December 21 at noonEric Owens and Adina Aaron in Porgy and BessLyric Opera of ChicagoSaturday, July 4 at 1 p.m.

/ Directions in Sound / July 2015 Bloomington 103.7 fm • Columbus 100.7 fm • French Lick/West Baden 101.7 fm

Eric Owens stars in Porgy and BessLyric Opera of ChicagoSaturday, July 4, 1 p.m.

Lyric Opera of Chicago Music Director Sir Andrew Davis calls Porgy and Bess “the great American opera.”

With its sprawling depiction of the doomed lovers Porgy and struggling drug addict Bess and their colorful home on Catfish Row, George Gershwin’s 1935 work is bursting with some of Gershwin’s most beloved music. The opera’s opener, “Summertime,” has been covered more than 25,000 times.

Bass-baritone Eric Owens stars as the goodhearted Porgy, a man who is disabled but strong and courageous. An esteemed interpreter of classic works and a champion of new music, Owens is equally at home in orchestral, recital, and operatic performances.

He sees Porgy as melding vulnerability, strength, and ultimately anger. “There is a naiveté in there as well as goodness.”

Owens’s favorite musical moment in the show is the act three trio (“Oh Bess, oh where’s my Bess?”) that Porgy sings with Maria and Serena after he learns that Bess has run off with the smooth-talking, drug-dealing Sportin’ Life.

“I equate it with suspension of time, this pouring out of his soul,” says Owens. “It’s more painful now for him, having experienced love. He didn’t know what he was missing before.”

In this production Porgy uses a crutch to move around instead of the usual cart. But with cart or crutch, Owens “spends a lot of energy just trying to get around the stage. In other situations you wouldn’t be expending that amount of energy.” Plus, the role itself gets more demanding as the evening goes on: “The trio at the end is unrelentingly high. You have to be really careful of that so you don’t blow it out there, because there’s more singing that you have to do.”

How does he handle it? “I try to do mostly cardio to get my body used to that. You also try to breathe slowly and hold it out a while as you exhale.”

During his appearance as Alberich in Das Rheingold at the Metropolitan Opera, Owens’s heart rate clocked in at 145 beats per minute—the target heart rate for a strenuous cardio workout.

Jazz NotesAs summer heats up, the jazz keeps simmering on WFIU, especially on the Friday edition of Just You and Me, when William Morris serves up his Soul Stew segment. This month’s offerings include additional seasonings of Booker T. & the M.G.s, Gary U.S. Bonds, Koko Taylor, and Ashford & Simpson.

After filling up on all of that warm soul stew, cool down on Friday evenings at 8 with Mark Chilla and Afterglow. Mark’s turning back the clock 60 years to explore vocal jazz from the mid-1950s at the start of the month, featuring the concept albums that Frank Sinatra made for Capitol Records. Other shows spotlight trumpeter Clifford Brown’s recordings with vocalists such as Sarah Vaughan and Helen Merrill, and a program focusing on cool-jazz vocalists of the fifties such as June Christy and Mel Tormé.

Night Lights moves to 9 p.m. on Friday evenings this month, kicking things off on the eve of Independence Day with a profile of that all-American icon, Louis Armstrong. An observation of the French independence holiday, Bastille Day, follows the next week, with “Paris Noir: African-American Musicians in France.”

Other programs this month highlight live recordings made at California’s Lighthouse club in the 1960s and 70s and the solo recordings of Duke Ellington’s saxophonist Paul Gonsalves.

News note: The IU Art Museum’s long-running, popular Jazz in July series is on hiatus this summer and will return next year. Check out other musical happenings around the area on our website at indianapublicmedia.org/events.

Alberto Nepomuceno was a dominant figure of Brazilian music in the second part of the 19th century and into the 20th until the arrival of Villa-Lobos. Host Elbio Barilari features a wide variety of pieces by this composer, who is the link between the classical, romantic, and post-romantic periods in his country.

3 Friday 8:00 PM AFTERGLOW

Sinatra’s Capitol ConceptsFor most of July, host Mark Chilla will look back 60 years to explore vocal jazz in the mid-1950s. To start, he explores Frank Sinatra’s move to Capitol Records, where he created a set of early “concept” albums: Songs for Young Lovers, In the Wee Small Hours, and Songs for Swingin’ Lovers.

9:00 PM NIGHT LIGHTSIt’s All in the Game: Louis Armstrong, 1947-57Host David Brent Johnson looks at Louis Armstrong’s life and music in the years following World War II.

5 Sunday11:00 AM RADIOLAB

Memory and ForgettingHosts Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich look behind the curtain of how memories are made and unmade. Remembering is an unstable and profoundly unreliable process—it’s easy come, easy go, as we learn how true memories can be obliterated, and false ones created. Oliver Sacks tells the story of an amnesiac whose love for his wife and music transcend his seven-second memory.

10:00 PM FIESTA!Well before Impressionism claimed direct inspiration from nature, musicians from different eras and styles linked music to its forces. In this program Elbio Barilari features masterpieces by composers such as Almeida Prado (Brazil), José Pablo Moncayo (México), Esteban Benzecry (Argentina), and Alberto Villalpando (Bolivia).


Clifford Brown and the SingersContinuing his look back at the mid-1950s in jazz, host Mark Chilla features records that trumpeter Clifford Brown recorded with some of the best vocalists of that era: Helen Merrill, Dinah Washington, and Sarah Vaughan.

9:00 PM NIGHT LIGHTSParis Noir: African-American Musicians in ParisIn the years following World War II, a number of African-American jazz musicians took up residence in France, inspired by the relative lack of racism, the working opportunities, and the appreciation that French audiences showed for their art. Dexter Gordon, Bud Powell, and Lucky Thompson are some of the featured artists.

They’ve all engaged in the art of musical name-dropping, paying respect to the masters that came before them—or the patrons providing the paychecks. This week Angela Mariani brings you music that gives credit where credit is due. Plus, a featured release by Musica Nova showcases a work that takes the time to acknowledge every one of the choir members who sang it with the composer.

10:00 PM FIESTA!Blas Galindo: Famous UnknownJust as Joaquín Rodrigo’s music has been overshadowed by the extraordinary success of his Concierto de Aranjuez, the composer Blas Galindo has experienced the same fate because of his Sones de Mariachi. This program focuses on the monumental work of Galindo as a symphonic composer and author of delicate and delightful chamber pieces.


Something CoolContinuing Mark Chilla’s look back at jazz in the mid-1950s, he features Something Cool, the debut solo album of cool-jazz singer June Christy. He also looks at some other cool-jazz singers from the period, including Mel Tormé’s years with the Bethlehem label.

9:00 PM NIGHT LIGHTSOff the A-Train: Paul GonsalvesTenor saxophonist Paul Gonsalves is best known for the epic solo he took with Duke Ellington’s orchestra during a 1956 concert at the Newport Jazz Festival. David Brent Johnson highlights Gonsalves’s recordings away from the Ellington band, with trumpeter Clark Terry and others.

SpermSperm carry half the genes needed for human life. This hour of Radiolab explores basic questions and profound thoughts about reproduction. To begin: why so many sperm? We turn to the animal kingdom for answers. Next, we ponder fatherhood, and wonder what the future holds for men in a world where sperm can be frozen and kept for all eternity.

This month on WTIU televisionThe Bomb Tuesday, July 28 at 8pm

Uranium – Twisting the Dragon’s Tail Tuesday and Wednesday, July 28-29 at 10pm

On the 70th anniversary of the dawn of the nuclear age, WTIU presents two new thought-provoking documentaries.

The Bomb shows how America developed the nuclear bomb and how the bomb continues to loom large in our lives. Uranium – Twisting the Dragon’s Tail unlocks the mysteries of uranium, one of the Earth’s most controversial elements.

The Bomb is presented near the 70th anniversary of the Trinity test and the bombing of Hiroshima in 1945. Using state-of-the-art transfer techniques to turn recently declassified images into vivid, jaw-dropping footage, the program outlines how America developed the bomb, how it changed the world, and how it continues to loom large in our lives.

The documentary includes interviews with historians, men and women who helped build the weapon piece by piece, former Secretary of State George Shultz and Secretary of Defense William Perry, and from those who hold firsthand memories of seeing the first mushroom clouds fill the skies.

In Uranium – Twisting the Dragon’s Tail, host and physicist Dr. Derek Muller embarks on an epic journey across the globe to explain the fascinating details of uranium’s birth and life. Born from the collapse of a star, uranium has brought hope, progress, and destruction. It has revolutionized society, from medicine to warfare.

Uranium has profoundly shaped the past, will change the future, and will exist long after humans have left the Earth. Filmed on five continents, the two-hour program delivers a gripping story of an ancient element’s footprint on the world.

Life insurance makes an extraordinary charitable giftby Nancy Krueger, Gifts and Grants Officer

When the original purpose for a life insurance policy no longer applies—such as educating children now grown or providing financial security for a spouse now deceased—your policy can become a powerful way to support WFIU. There are three ways to give life insurance to WFIU through the Indiana University Foundation: Name WFIU as a beneficiary of the policy. This is as simple as updating your beneficiary designation form with the policy holder. You can designate WFIU as the primary beneficiary for a percentage or specific amount, or make us the contingent beneficiary so that we will receive the balance of your policy only if your primary beneficiary doesn’t survive you. Make an outright gift of an existing policy. You can name us as owner and beneficiary of an existing policy. You may receive a federal income tax charitable deduction and reduce your future estate tax liability. If you continue to pay premiums on the policy, each payment is tax deductible as a charitable gift. Make an outright gift of a new policy. You can take out a new policy and name WFIU as the owner and the beneficiary of the insurance contract. This method may be attractive for the younger donor. To complete your gift, contact your insurance company or go online to complete a beneficiary designation form. Remember, a beneficiary designation is always revocable should your circumstances or preferences change. When considering any charitable arrangements, it’s wise to consult a trusted financial or legal advisor. Contact [email protected] or call 812-855-2935 with any questions about gift opportunities at WFIU.
