  7:00 The Wire: The Impact of Electricity on Music

  Winner of a Peabody Award and the Prix Italia

  Eight programmes

  (1) Hallo, Hallo

  The arrival of public electricity on the eve of the 20th century transformed virtually every aspect of daily life, not the least of all, the experience of music. We begin our journey on The Wire with a reflection on how it has changed the way we think of the human voice, the way we communicate sound to large groups of people, and the way we now take for granted that sound is something that can be preserved, stored and heard again

  Featuring the voices of Bryan Dewalt, Monique Fortune, and Jean McPhail. Includes the Episode remix by Meta4 (CBC)

  8:00 Eric Boeren, Wilbert de Joode and Michael Vatcher playing at the 10th Wellington International Jazz Festival (recorded in The Front Room, Wellington, by RNZ)
