Scotland is gorgeous-(people, too)‼️

Edinburgh & the Highlands are two of the best places I’ve ever been! What a work trip it was! I’m grateful to my employer WDAV, Classical Public Radio, for sending me.
The festival in August is fabulous and Edinburgh is STUNNING! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ❤️

Recording and live mixing full orchestra this weekend is a highlight reel thing for me. Tune in this Sat to WDAV for the hear the broadcast.

Geffel mains. Schoeps outriggers. Spot mics around as needed. Great sounding hall. Top talent musicianship.

At WDAV, we call it a “classical public radio moment,” It’s when music transports your heart to another place & time. We go to a better place and time. Music inspires memories.Yes, even in dogs. Doodle knows when the music changes, commercials come on. He knows commercials have dogs! Cue the 🎶.

For the latest Piedmont Arts podcast from WDAV, I interviewed Alvin Jacobs about his photo exhibit "Black Behind Bars," at Charlotte's Gantt Center for African-American Arts + Culture. He talked being a photographer/activist and the triple meaning of the exhibit title. wdav.org/episode/alvi...

Some public media stations in the CLT area are already laying off staff. Almost all stations are doing emergency fund raising.

Where I work at WDAV, Classical Public Radio, it’s about 6%of our budget or approximately $237,000.

Support your local Public Media outlet. We are much more than news! 🙏🏻
50-100 million people listen to & watch public radio & TV. Total revenue of all public media--the 900 local radio stations + NPR, PRX & APM, all 350 local TV stations + PBS--are maybe $6 billion. Of which the government has provided $500 million. The ignoramuses' defunding is a blow, but not fatal.

Look up NC. You’ll find WDAV, Classical Public Radio, on the list. This is a wonderful tool. It even shows you the % of $$ we will lose.
ADOPT A STATION! Particularly in rural America. So many to choose from, including KILI--Lakota owned and operated, station on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota: adoptastation.org. h/t to Alex Curley, who created this and posted on his LinkedIn
Adopt A Station - Rescue Public Media
Help preserve independent journalism and community programming across America by adopting a public media station. Congress has voted to rescind public media's funding.

Ahhhh... WDAV and cleaning things off my desk while email is quiet so the rest of my week goes smoother. I love knocking out the low hanging fruit when everyone is OOO.

First day back at WDAV after battling bronchitis, walking pneumonia & a sinus infection for a full month. Haven’t left the house and I’m already short of breath. 🤬 I have to remind myself to take it slow & easy these first few weeks back.

Billy Childs is in the spotlight on day 6 of Black History Month. Billy is a notable jazz pianist, but his skill as a composer eventually took center stage. Noteworthy Classical is a service of WDAV, Classical Public Radio.

WDAV does a drive each year to collect period products. Called “Well-Equipped Period” we’ve gathered thousands & thousands of items which have gone to women’s crisis centers and shelters around Davidson & Charlotte. We help others. So proud to work there! It’s who we are. It’s Public Media.
