Hanashi Station Podcast for August 11th, 2005 (15.2 MB MP3)
The show was delayed a bit, due to a misplaced USB cable, but now it’s here, it’s up and, well, I hope you like it…
It doesn’t have the excellent production values that you may be used to, because Kristen is off on vacation, but it doesn’t sound *too* bad, I think, but of course, like most people, listening to a recording of my own voice is very strange.
There’s some music in it, from ibiblio, all released under a Creative Commons license.
The first piece is Sonatine for Oboe and Piano by Thomas Walmisley, from a 1991 performance by Alex Klein, oboe and Lisa Bergman, piano.
Later on, you’ll hear Bach-Busoni Chorale : Nun freut euch lieben Christen, performed by Debbie Hu.
I also snarfed Kristen’s matsuri recording, to use as background for one part.
