The way this music affects me gives some credence to past-lives theory. | |

I don't think i'd heard Ellen Fullman's work before. It's amazing! And goes well with the early stuff. | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:16pm
rick in philly:
The Ellen Fullman piece reminded me a little of Riech's Violin Phase | |
|

ADM:
Ranjit, you should check out and see if she has any live shows coming up. I saw her at ISSUE a while back and its an amazing thing to see. The instrument she plays takes up a whole room. | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:20pm
kat330:
The long, deeper drone of Fullman's instrument is more akin to the rebec than the lute to my ear. | |

Yeah BEER! | |

I thought the vielle was a hurdy gurdy! I guess my thinking is just too modern: "Starting in the middle or end of the 15th century, the word vielle was used to refer to the hurdy gurdy." - wikipedia | |

I know vielle as the feminine form of the word vieux in french. I think? | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:26pm
trs:
or oh, wait I"m wrong. It's 'vieille' | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:26pm
trs:
Maybe it was 'vielle' in the olden days.. or in the old town. | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:27pm
kat330:
Isn't "viele" something like "a lot" in German, too? | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:28pm
rick in philly:
I love the expression "olden days"! | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:28pm

Viel (in German) = Much | |

|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:41pm
kat330:
BTW, Bethany, why are you "hp" in playlist designation while "br" is Benjamin Walker? Weird that. | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:42pm
12539:
Isn't "hp" for Hit Parade, as in Stochastic Hit Parade? | |
|

kat330:
@Rusty: I just hope one day I'll get to visit our 50th state. I'm jealous of anyone going there let alone living there. @12539: You would know best! :) | |

Anyone know why Nardwar's album is named 'Busy doing nothing?' Curious. | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:52pm
kat330:
I can never viel it is too much. | |

@kat330: thanks for another laugh! | |

Mon. 4/9/12 8:53pm
G:
Is that a tender viel, or a tough viel? | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:54pm
kat330:
@trs: Okay, two curiosities awaiting discovery: playlists/hp and Nardwar's BDN. | |

Van in DC:
Why oh why do I not listen to this show ALL the time? Always wonderful to hear! If I were to mention that I am seeing Joshua Bell with the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields at Strathmore on Friday, would that be enough to get you jealous Ms. Bethany Ryker? :) | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:56pm
trs:
My guess is he just made it up. | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:57pm

@Van: Make a note. Sometimes I miss the start if busy with dinner stuff... | |

Busy Doing Nothing is also the name of Charlie's show on wfmu. It's an old Bing Crosby song, but I don't know if the phrase itself is older. | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 8:58pm
kat330:
There seems to be "viel" baseball fever around these parts of late, so I'll use an apt metaphor: You hit it out of the ballpark tonight, BR/HP. Kiitos and moi! G'night good folk. | |
|

You're the best, Bethany. Two more hours for you! | |

Van in DC:
See, G, it's beer that is my downfall in the evenings. :) What? The show is over? Rats. | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 9:01pm
G:
"Busy Doing Nothing" was in that Tawin adaptation film "A Connecticut Yankee...", starring Crosby, and seems to have been written for that film. Could be an older phrase the songwriter used, though... | |
|

Van in DC:
Busy Doing Nothing is GTDS show :) (Hi Charlie) | |
|
Mon. 4/9/12 9:04pm
Van in DC:
Whoops, make that GTD*R* show - Give the Drummer Radio on wfmu...GTDS is Doug's Give the Drummer Some show on Give the Drummer Radio stream :) And Charlie has Busy Doing Nothing on the stream. Great show. | |

What're the odds? | |

Even. I guess. | |
