This spring, WFIU’s early music series Harmonia reached two milestones—it completed its 800th program and reached its 20th year of syndication.

The program began in 1991 when Station Manager Christina Kuzmych asked board announcer and early music practitioner Angela Mariani—then a graduate student at IU’s Early Music Institute—if she would be interested in creating a weekly, early music program as a local offering by WFIU. The show quickly gained a large and enthusiastic local following. After the generous response garnered by the program during the following two fund Angela Mariani in 1991 holding drives, plans began to find a way to offer a historical reproduction of a the program nationally. medieval Romanesque harp.

In June 1995 Harmonia began syndication, and within only a few months it was picked up by 50 stations. Since then the program has been broadcast on hundreds of stations nationally (and in the Philippines) and can be heard globally on the Internet.

For the first 15 years of its existence, Angela wrote and produced every Harmonia episode, conducted and edited all the interviews, and helped to market the program at various radio conferences.

Initially engineered by Patsy Smith, since September 1996 the program has been engineered, recorded, and edited by WFIU’s Michael Paskash—who recently produced his 600th show.

Angela is now a full-time university professor and the director of the Early Music Ensemble at Texas Tech University.

But she continues to host the program with the help of Mike and a dedicated staff of writers, podcasters, and bloggers, directed by LuAnn Johnson.

For Harmonia’s 800th program, Angela returned to her previous role as scriptwriter, interviewer, and producer to create a special program. It features medieval flute virtuoso Norbert Rodenkirchen of the ensemble Sequentia, and airs Thursday, September 3at 9 p.m.

Angela looks forward to hosting Harmonia for many more years to come!

Jazz Notes

Sundays at 6 p.m.

September 6 – David Williams David C. Williams is a law professor at the IU Maurer School of Law where he teaches constitutional law and Native American law. He has written widely on constitutional design, Native American law, and the relationship between constitutionalism and political violence. As executive director of the Center for Constitutional Democracy, Williams consults with reform movements abroad. He advises elements of the Burma democracy movement on the constitutional future of that country, and is a consultant to the government of Liberia on its constitutional revision process. He is the author of The Mythic Meanings of the Second Amendment: Taming Political Violence in a Constitutional Republic. Trish Kerlé hosts.

September 13 – John Porcellino John Porcellino writes, draws, and publishes minicomics and graphic novels. In 1989 he began his self-published, photocopied, mostly autobiographical series King-Cat Comics and today it is among the best-known and longest-running minicomics produced. His Ignatz Award-winning Diary of a Mosquito Abatement Man is a collection of King-Cat stories about his experiences as a pest control worker, and Perfect Example chronicles his struggles with depression as a teenager. King-Cat Classix and Map of My Heart offer an overview of the zine’s first sixty-one issues, while Thoreau at Walden is a poetic expression of the philosopher’s experience and ideals. Betsy Shepherd hosts.

With September comes autumn, that season of traditions, and one tradition that new Afterglow host Mark Chilla is continuing is the program’s Songs of the Season theme. You can catch some music suitable for falling leaves and cooling temperatures Friday, September 25 at 8 p.m.

Other Afterglow shows this month include standards sung by the king and queen of soul, Sam Cooke and Aretha Franklin; that program airs Friday, September 4.

Each Tuesday on Just You and Me this month host David Brent Johnson features new reissues from the Xanadu label, home to some superlative hardbop jazz recordings in the 1970s from pianist Barry Harris, saxophonists Jimmy Heath and Al Cohn, flutist Sam Most, and others.

September 20 – Jose Antonio Vargas Jose Antonio Vargas is a journalist, filmmaker, and immigration rights activist. He is the founder of Define American, a nonprofit media organization that seeks to open up dialogue around immigration and citizenship. He produced and directed White People, an MTV special on what it means to be young and white in contemporary America, and the autobiographical film Documented. He has written for Rolling Stone and The New Yorker, and was a senior contributing editor at the Huffington Post, where he launched the Technology and College sections. He was part of the team that won a Pulitzer Prize for covering the Virginia Tech massacre. Will Murphy hosts.

September 27 – Claudia Roden and Larry Barsalou Profiles presents two guests who participated in IU’s Themester “Eat, Drink, Think: Food from Art to Science.” Claudia Roden is a cookbook writer and cultural anthropologist born in Cairo, Egypt who lives in London.

She has hosted a cooking show for the BBC, and is co-chair of the Oxford Symposium on Food and Cookery. Annie Corrigan hosts.

Lawrence W. Barsalou is a psychologist and a cognitive scientist whose areas of study include appetitive behavior. His work addresses the nature of human knowledge and its roles in perception, memory, language, and thought. A theme of his research is that the human conceptual system is grounded in the brain’s modality-specific systems. Professor Rob Goldstone hosts.

Wes Montgomery

On Friday, September 25, reissue mastermind Zev Feldman will talk about these titles and other recent projects with which he’s been involved, such as the 2-CD Wes Montgomery In the Beginning anthology, on Night Lights at 9 p.m.

Other Night Lights programs this month take a look at the early-1960s return of saxophonist Sonny Rollins from a sabbatical taken at the height of his jazz fame, recordings made by jazz fusion pioneers before the appearance of Miles Davis’ landmark Bitches Brew album, and the arrival of bebop in Europe in the late 1940s.

Be sure to tune into Just You and Me every Friday afternoon, when William Morris serves up his Soul Stew special of jazz, R & B, funk, pop, rock—and that not-so-secret ingredient of personality to help whet your appetite for the weekend.

Walt Disney at his drawing board in his studio in 1955

Walt Disney was adept at art as well as commerce, a master filmmaker who harnessed the power of technology and storytelling. This new two-part, four-hour film examines Disney’s life and enduring legacy. It features rare footage from the Disney archives and interviews with biographers and historians, animators and artists who worked on Snow White and other early films, and designers who helped create Disneyland.

From Steamboat Willie to Pinocchio to Mary Poppins, Disney’s movies grew out of his own life experiences. He told stories of outsiders struggling for acceptance and belonging while questioning the conventions of class and authority. As Disney rose to prominence and gained financial security, his work became increasingly celebratory of the American way of life that made his unlikely success possible.

Yet despite his success, he was driven and restless, a demanding perfectionist on whom decades of relentless work and chain-smoking took their toll. He wanted his films to make people feel deeply, yet he often buried his own emotions.

Aspiring to create great artistic films, he felt he wasn’t taken seriously by the movie industry and was stung when critics panned his productions.

Join us for an unprecedented look at the life and legacy of one of America’s most enduring and influential storytellers.

• Changes in estate and gift tax laws. State and federal tax laws change from time to time and may make it necessary to revise your plans.

• A move to another state. State laws governing wills and trusts vary. If your plans were drafted under the laws of another state, it may be wise to have them reviewed under the laws of the state where you now live.

• If someone cannot serve. The person you originally named to settle your affairs may no longer be able to serve. If an alternate is not named, a court may appoint someone you or your family may not know.

• A desire to make charitable gifts. After taking care of family and friends, many choose to remember the charitable organizations they have supported throughout their lives and make a final gift to continue that support.

Consult your trusted legal or financial advisors if you believe changes are in order. For information about including WFIU in your will or estate plans, visit indianapublicmedia.org and click on Support and then Gift Planning & Endowment.
