Tuesday Morning Club:
An Hour in the KPFA Music Department Office, 1970

Charles Amirkhanian fills in for the absent Julian White for this edition of KPFA’s Tuesday Morning Club. Rather than playing a selection of elegant classical music, Amirkhanian takes this opportunity to give listeners a feel for what the Music Department Office was like during a typical day in 1970. Fielding phone calls from Liam O’Gallagher, moving boxes, answering questions for staff and volunteers, it's all here in this fascinating peek behind the KPFA curtain. Also included are musical works by Colin McPhee, a Canadian composer who became one of the first Western ethnomusicologist to study the gamelan music of Bali, and his fellow ultra-modern composer and publisher, Henry Cowell.
