Bill McGlaughlin, the beloved longtime host of Saint Paul Sunday, returns to WFIU with a new program: Exploring Music. The program can be heard Sunday through Thursday nights at 7 on WFIU1, and weekdays at noon on our digital-only WFIU2. The series delves into a wide assortment of topics in the world of classical music. Each week’s five episodes build off a single topic—ranging from composer biographies to explorations of various cultures, musical styles, and time periods. Recent weeks have been devoted to profiling musical works inspired by Shakespeare, to celebrating AfricanAmerican composers, and to discovering and deciphering messages hidden within pieces of classical music. Bill records Exploring Music without a written script, allowing for spontaneity and a casual feeling. Bill McGlaughlin’s introduction to music came late; he was 14 before he took his first piano lessons. “Happily, I understood immediately what a wonderful thing I’d stumbled into. I can remember thinking as I walked away from my second piano lesson, ‘Well, that’s it. I’ll be a musician.’ Of course, I had no idea what that decision meant exactly.” Over the years, Bill was to discover that “being a musician” could embrace a great many paths. He has served as an educator, as a performer—a trombonist with the Philadelphia Orchestra and Pittsburgh Symphony— and as a conductor. For seven years he was associate conductor with the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, followed by periods as music director of orchestras in Eugene, Tucson, and San Francisco, and most recently, a 12year engagement as music director of the Kansas City Symphony. He has also been active as a guest conductor, leading the Baltimore Symphony, Denver Symphony, and Houston Symphony, among many others. Active in broadcasting, McGlaughlin hosted Saint Paul Sunday since its inception in 1980, and is now in his 12th season as co-host of the chamber music program Center Stage from Wolf Trap. In 1997 Bill made a public debut as a composer. His Three Dreams and a Question: Choral Songs on e. e. cummings was enthusiastically received by audience, performers, and press at its premiere with the Kansas City Symphony. Aaron’s Horizons, a work dedicated to the spirit of Aaron Copland, with whom McGlaughin worked in the 1970s, has been heard nationwide in a broadcast with members of the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra.

WFIU’s Featured Artist for the month of June is pianist André Watts. It was apparent at an early age that André Watts was a prodigious talent. At the age of 8, he began piano studies at the Philadelphia Musical Academy, and the next year he performed Haydn’s Concerto in D with the Philadelphia Orchestra. In 1963, when Watts was 16, he had his formal introduction to the international stage when Leonard Bernstein chose him to make his debut with the New York Philharmonic. The concert took place as one of the ensemble’s Young People’s Concerts, which was broadcast nationwide. An additional performance with Bernstein occurred two weeks later, when Watts served as a last minute replacement for an ailing Glenn Gould. After this performance, Watts’ career was launched. Watts continues to give sold-out recitals and performances with many of the world’s great orchestras and conductors. He makes regular visits to the major summer music festivals, including Ravinia, Tanglewood, Saratoga, the Mann Music Center, Mostly Mozart, and the Hollywood Bowl.
Featured Contemporary Composer
Gabriela Lena Frank
WFIU’s featured contemporary composer for June is American composer and pianist Gabriela Lena Frank. Frank’s multi-cultural heritage is at the center of her musical identity. Born in Berkeley, California to a mother of mixed Peruvian/Chinese ancestry and a father of Lithuanian/Jewish descent, Frank’s approach to composition is heavily inspired
He has made frequent television appearances, performing with the New York Philharmonic, the Boston Symphony, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. His 1976 New York recital, which aired on Live from Lincoln Center, was the first full-length recital broadcast in the history of television, and his performance at the 38th Casals Festival in Puerto Rico was nominated for an Emmy Award in the category of Outstanding Individual Achievement in Cultural Programming. Much honored, Watts is a 2014 inductee in the American Classical Music Hall of Fame, and he received a 2011 National Medal of Arts, the highest award given to artists and art patrons by the United States government. In 2006, he was inducted into the Hollywood Bowl of Fame and was also the recipient of the 1988 Avery Fisher Prize. He was the youngest person (at age 26) to receive an honorary doctorate from Yale University and he has since received numerous honors from schools including the University of Pennsylvania, Brandeis University, The Juilliard School of Music, and the Peabody Conservatory of Johns Hopkins University. by the anthropological efforts of composers such as Bela Bartók and Alberto Ginastera. A self-described nomad, Frank has traveled extensively throughout South America and has created her own distinct compositional voice by incorporating Latin-American folklore, poetry, mythology, and native musical styles into a western classical framework. Described by the Los Angeles Times as an “exciting and necessary voice,” Frank’s works have been performed by the Kronos Quartet, Chanticleer, the King’s Singers, the Del Sol Quartet, the San Francisco Symphony Youth Orchestra, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble, the ALIAS Chamber Ensemble, and Ballet Hispanico. Her 2004 composition Three LatinAmerican Dances was recorded by the Utah Symphony for the Reference Recording label, and her work Leyendas: An Andean Walkabout was released in early 2007 on the New Voice Singles label by the Chiara String Quartet. She has served residencies with Lafayette College, the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra, and was the Music Alive Composer-in-Residence with the Annapolis Symphony Orchestra. A recipient of a 2009 Guggenheim Fellowship, Frank has been recognized for her works that often draw on Latin

Artist of the Month
André Watts
Previously artist-in-residence at the University of Maryland, André Watts was appointed to the Jack I. and Dora B. Hamlin Endowed Chair in Music at Indiana University in 2004. WFIU will feature performances by André Watts in our music programming throughout the month.
American musical forms. She has developed numerous projects with Cuban playwright Nilo Cruz, among them La Centinela y la Paloma (The Keeper and the Dove), a song cycle for Dawn Upshaw and the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra that premiered in February 2011. Her piece Inca Dances won the 2009 Latin Grammy Award for Best Classical Contemporary Composition. Beginning in 2007, Frank embarked on a two-year residency with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra in which she was asked to compose a work that reflected the growing Latino community in Indianapolis. Frank’s residency involved over a dozen visits and was documented by PBS. During that time she collaborated with members of Indianapolis International Center and the Latino Youth Collective. The residency culminated with the premiere of Frank’s extended work Peregrinos on February 27, 2009. Frank studied composition and piano at Rice University and earned a doctorate in composition at the University of Michigan, where her teachers included William Albright, William Bolcom, Leslie Bassett, and Michael Daugherty. WFIU will feature music of Gabriela Lena Frank in our classical music programming throughout the month. June 2014 / Directions in Sound / Page 3
Featured Classical Recordings Selections from each week’s featured recording can be heard throughout WFIU’s local classical music programming. June 2–8 Meine Seele: German Sacred Music (ATMA Classique ACD2 2668) Matthew White, countertenor Tempo Rubato On Meine Seele (“My Soul”), Canadian countertenor Matthew White breathes new life into sacred cantatas by German composers who preceded Bach. Listeners are invited to rediscover forgotten works by such 17th-century German masters as Franz Tunder, Christoph Bernhard, and Philipp Heinrich Erlebach— composers who have been more valued as predecessors to Bach than as artists in their own right. The ensemble Tempo Rubato is directed by Alexander Weimann, one of the most sought-after harpsichordists, soloists, and chamber music partners of his generation. June 9–15 Peter Boyer (Naxos 8.559769) London Philharmonic Orchestra Peter Boyer, conductor Peter Boyer is one of the most frequentlyperformed American orchestral composers of our time. His populist works brings to mind the music of Copland, Bernstein, and John Williams. The Grammynominated composer has contributed to the arrangements of movies such as Skyfall and many television programs, including two Academy Awards telecasts. The five works on this CD offer a cross section of his orchestral music. Silver Fanfare, Festivities, and Celebration Overture were commissions for celebratory concerts. Three Olympians reflects his interest in
mythology, and his Symphony No. 1 is a rhythmically-charged work. June 16–22 Sarasate (Decca 478 5950) Julia Fischer, violin Milana Chernyavska, piano Violinist Julia Fischer delivers virtuoso pyrotechnics on the dazzling showpieces of Pablo Sarasate. The album features nine of his miniatures for violin and piano, many of which are based on Spanish dances. The key track is Sarasate’s most celebrated composition, Zigeunerweisen (“Gypsy Airs”). With its heady czardas rhythms and folk flavor, it is best known as a showpiece for violin and orchestra, but Fischer and her long-standing accompanist Milana Chernyavska present it here as it was originally written, for violin and piano. This CD represents Fischer’s desire to restore to the concert platform pieces known to audiences mainly as encores. June 23–29 Paradise: Instrumental Sonatas of Antonio Bertali (FCR901) ACRONYM The 17th-century violinist and composer Antonio Bertali was a prolific creator of both sacred and secular works, but few of his pieces were published and those that do exist are in the form of manuscripts. This CD contains the premiere recordings of six of Bertali’s sonatas along with new orchestrations of several others. They are performed by the twelve-member string band ACRONYM, which aims to resurrect music of the past and premiere longlost works by forgotten composers. The group was formed in 2012 to create the first recording of the complete Alphabet Sonatas of Johann Pezel. Cellist Kivie Cahn-Lipman directs the ensemble.

Sundays at 11 a.m. June 1 Black Box This hour, we examine three very different kinds of black boxes—those spaces where it’s clear what’s going in and what’s coming out, but what happens in-between is a mystery. From the darkest parts of metamorphosis to a 60-year-old secret among magicians, we confront the gaps in our understanding. June 8 Who Are You? This hour centers on a chilling question: How well can you ever know the people around you? We talk to neuroscientists, primatologists, actors, and zookeepers who are all trying to get inside another’s mind—from how a newborn sees his father, to a rare disorder that turns family members into impostors. June 15 New Normal In this hour we reframe our ideas about normalcy. Evolution results from the ability of organisms to change. But how do you tell the difference between a sea change and a ripple in the water? Is a man in a dress, a peaceful baboon, or a cuddly fox a sign of things to come? Or just an outlier from the norm? June 22 Musical Language What is music and why does it move us? How does the brain process sound, and why are some people better at it than others? We re-imagine the disastrous debut of Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring in 1913 through the lens of modern neurology, and we meet a composer who uses computers to capture the musical DNA of dead composers to create new work. June 29 Mortality In this hour of Radiolab: Is death a disease that can be cured? We filter the modern search for the fountain of youth through personal stories of witnessing death –the death of a cell, the death of a loved one, and the aging of a society.

Greensburg 98.9 fm • Kokomo 106.1 fm • Terre Haute 95.1 fm
The year is 1850, and Honor Bright has just been jilted by her fiancé, so she decides to join her sister Grace, who is immigrating to a small Quaker community in Ohio. But on the overland journey to Ohio, Grace dies of yellow fever, and Honor is left in the awkward position of an outsider, searching for her place in an unsettled land of restless change where even the Quakers are different from those she had known at home. For a modest English Quaker stranded far from home, life is a trial. She finds solace in writing letters to friends and family in England and in the exquisite quilting skills that tie her to her old life and offer some hope of ties to a new one. Honor’s only true American friend is Belle, the unorthodox milliner who helps runaway slaves escape to freedom in the Underground Railroad, even as her rough and charismatic brother, Donovan, hunts them down. Through them, Honor is drawn into clandestine activities, getting to know exceptional people who embody the startling power of defiance. Eventually she must decide if she too can act on what she believes in, whatever the personal cost. The Last Runaway is a powerful saga brimming with color and drama by the author of Girl with a Pearl Earring. A sweeping journey about the power of bravery, friendship, and perseverance, it offers a cast of strong characters wrestling with thorny personalities, the harsh realities of the frontier, and the legal and moral complexities of American slavery.

Jazz Notes
William P. Gottlieb
“Summer is a comin’-in,” as Nat King Cole sang long ago, and with it the WFIU jazz department strives once again to provide you with a soundtrack for sunny days, mellow nights, and curious, intelligent, engaged minds in search of both relaxation and stimulation. You’ll be sure to hear a few celebratory odes to summer during WFIU’s Friday evening jazz-and-popularsong lineup in June. Our 8 p.m. program Afterglow will pay tribute to the warm weather on June 20, and Dick Bishop will follow suit throughout the month with his trademark “songs of the season” sprinkled like so much stardust across Standards by Starlight, airing every Friday at 9 p.m. Other Afterglow highlights this month include a centennial portrait of singer and bandleader Billy Eckstine, who was so popular that his appearance in 1950 at the Paramount Theatre in New York City drew a larger audience than Frank Sinatra at that venue. We’ll also take a tour of the Jimmy Webb songbook, Billy Eckstine which includes such hits as “Wichita Lineman,” “MacArthur Park,” and “By the Time I Get to Phoenix.” Night Lights, our thematic 10 p.m. Friday classic-jazz program, will honor Father’s Day with “Daddy-O!” on June 13, featuring fatherand-son performances in jazz. Other Night Lights shows examine significant years in the musical careers of John Coltrane and Eric Dolphy and the jazz world’s reaction to the 1950s and 60s space race.

WFIU-WTIU News Team Wins Prestigious Awards News bureau honored by professional organizations The Radio Television Digital News Association, the world’s largest professional organization devoted exclusively to electronic journalism, gave the WFIU-WTIU news team seven Edward R. Murrow Awards for its on-air and online reporting in 2013. The seven awards represent an unprecedented total in a single year for WFIU and WTIU. They also make ours the most-recognized small-market broadcast operation this year, and, following WBHM in Birmingham, Alabama, the secondmost-decorated radio or TV newsroom in America. The news team bested all competing stations in collecting seven regional honors for broadcast and online reporting. Executive Director of Radio-TV Services Perry Metz noted that the Murrow awards, similar to regional Emmys, “recognize the work of more than ten newsroom staff and students for reporting on education, sexual assault among teen girls, and regular news.” “They also recognize the work put into our online websites, including the news and StateImpact pages. It’s quite an achievement for a relatively small newsroom to win so many.” The Indiana chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists honored the WFIU-WTIU news team with 25 awards in the 2013 Best in Indiana Journalism competition. The winners were honored at the 35th annual awards banquet in Indianapolis. Reporter Kyle Stokes’ report on the devastation brought on by the Washington, Indiana tornado was awarded first place in the Radio Breaking News Coverage category. One of the competition’s judges praised the piece for being “beautifully written with lots of vivid verbs and description. [It had] very effective use of a standup and Q&A with the man whose house had been destroyed. I really felt like I could picture the devastation.” In the Best Online Multimedia category, StateImpact reporters Elle Moxley and Kyle Stokes were awarded first place for their piece “Progress Report:
Greensburg 98.9 fm • Kokomo 106.1 fm • Terre Haute 95.1 fm
Common Core in Indiana.” The judges commented that “bringing all the elements together in one page to give the project a feeling of its own site is brilliant with so many components.” Sehvilla Mann’s report “Toxic PCBs Still Trouble Bloomington” was awarded first place in the Features Reporting category. Judges praised the piece for its depth of research, wide range of sources, and successful use of images to convey meaning. Other prize-winning reports included coverage of the possible link between PCB exposure and cancer, the historical roots of the John Mellencamp musical, sexual assault among Indiana’s youth, an obituary of cellist Janos Starker, and a controversy about intelligent design at Ball State. You can listen to and watch the reports on our website, wfiunews.org.
WFIU Reads Shakespeare Listen to WFIU on-air personalities and behind-the-scenes staff as you’ve never heard them before—reading Shakespeare at the Monroe County Civic Theater’s 25th Annual Shakespeare in the Park Festival.

Morning Edition host Annie Corrigan, Jazz Director David Brent Johnson, classical music host George Walker, arts producer Yaël Ksander, Ether Game host Mark Chilla, Station Operations Director Will Murphy, and others will read. The Monroe County Civic Theater was founded in 1986 by a group of local artists dedicated to providing theatermaking experiences for all members of the Bloomington community.

Giving Life Insurance Life insurance can be a tool with many purposes. When your children were young, you may have purchased policies to provide them with financial protection in case something should happen to you or your spouse. But perhaps your circumstances have now changed, along with the need for that paid-up life insurance policy. If so, consider one of the most satisfying uses for life insurance you no longer need—donating it to a cause dear to your heart, such as WFIU.
W IU This month on WTIU television. Freedom Summer: American Experience Tuesday, June 24, 9 p.m.–11 p.m. During the summer of 1964, the nation’s eyes were riveted on Mississippi. More than 700 student volunteers joined organizers and local African-Americans in an effort to shatter the foundations of white supremacy in the nation’s most segregated state. The campaign was marked by beatings, murders, the burning of churches, and the bombing of 70 homes and Freedom Houses.
There are two ways to arrange this simple gift.
Masterpiece Mystery! Endeavour – Season 2 Sunday June 29 through July 20, 9 p.m.–10:30 p.m.
Give an existing policy. When you choose to name WFIU as the policy owner and beneficiary of a paid-up or whole life policy, you may receive an immediate income tax charitable deduction for the policy’s fair market value or your cost basis.
In these new episodes: Detective Constable Endeavour Morse investigates what appears to be a routine suicide until he discovers the dead man’s mysterious final message. At an isolated school for girls, an elderly man is murdered with a ceremonial dagger. And a missing boy, a dead journalist, and an absconder from an open prison draw Morse into a chain of events that could reveal horrors of the past.
Retain ownership of an existing policy. If you prefer to retain ownership of a policy you can: • Name WFIU as the sole or partial primary beneficiary of the policy. You can choose whatever percentage you desire. As owner of the policy you retain the right to change the beneficiary designation at any time. • Name WFIU as the contingent beneficiary, so it receives the benefit only if your primary beneficiary predeceases you.
Last Tango in Halifax, Season 2 Sunday June 29 through August 3, 8 p.m.–9 p.m. Childhood sweethearts Alan and Celia have fallen for each other a second time when they are reunited after six decades. Having come so close to losing each other thanks to Alan’s near fatal heart attack, he and Celia decide to marry as soon as possible. But how will their daughters react? The uptight Caroline and rebellious Gillian are discovering they actually like each other. However, Gillian’s need to own up to her night with Caroline’s ex-husband John could jeopardize the soon-tobe stepsisters’ fledgling friendship.
These two options above don’t produce an income tax deduction, but they provide the satisfaction of knowing WFIU will receive some benefits if certain events occur. To complete your future gift, contact your insurance company or go online and complete a beneficiary designation form. When considering any of these charitable arrangements, it is important to consult a trusted financial or legal advisor. Contact nkrueger@indiana.edu or call 812855-2935 with any questions about gift opportunities at WFIU.
