INTERVIEWS AND CONCERTS FOR THE WEEK

Monday 07/20 and weekend of July 25th
AN INTERVIEW WITH BILL FRISELL
A different kind of Americana

Bill Frisell is not only one of the best guitarists of our age, but one of the most conceptual. Since his 1983 debut on ECM, he's charted a singular course, mixing country ambience and electronic distortion, weaving together music from Aaron Copland to Madonna, plus his own originals. He is a guitarist's guitarist, a musician's musician and he talks with us about his music, on Echoes.

A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH JEFF BALL
Native flute chamber music

Jeff Ball is one of the most skillful players of the Native American flute. He brings a bunch of them into the Echoes Living Room and creates chamber versions of music from his album of Native Americana, Ghost Town.

ECHOES THEN & NOW:
VANGELIS
The sultan of symphonic synthesis

From his early space music albums through his Academy Award winning soundtracks and across his neo-symphonic works, Greek synthesist Vangelis has supercharged Echoes from the beginning with his lush romanticism and dynamic orchestrations. As we near our 20th anniversary we look back at Vangelis, Then and Now.

Friday 07/24
AN INTERVIEW WITH RAY MONTFORD
A Canadian guitarist makes ambient Americana

Ray Montford is one of those chameleon guitarists who can play just about anything, but on his latest album, A Fragile Balance, he creates and ambient Americana that's like a meeting of Pink Floyd and Ry Cooder. We talk to this gifted musician about his long career in the music trenches and music that touches the sky.
