Tonight we are joined in conversation by pianist Thomas Feng in anticipation of his performance of Night Prayers at PS21's Winter Festival The Dark.

On Friday February 20, Thomas Feng will perform compositions by Ethiopian composer, pianist, and nun Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou alongside works by Beethoven and Chopin which Guèbrou kept in her room until her passing. The program, set amongst an immersive starscape installation by Andrew Schneider, conjures the rarefied stillness and spirituality of Guèbrou’s nights. Visit https://ps21chatham.org/event/emahoy-tsegue-maryam-guebrou/ for more information.

Our conversation airs at 10pm ET tonight on WGXC 90.7-FM, wgxc.org, and the Wave Farm smartphone app, and will be downloadable from WGXC’s archive thereafter

Join us tonight for the last Snackpoint Charlie of 2025, where we will wonder aloud about how to recap this rapid unscheduled disassembly of a year. Expect atmospheric abstraction punctuated with occasional bits of things resembling songs, and hopefully you won’t be disappointed. 10pm New York state time Wednesday December 17 on WGXC 90.7-FM and streaming at wgxc.org…

…and now that I've got your attention, perhaps you'll consider a year-end donation to my host, WGXC 90.7-FM, Greene and Columbia County community radio. WGXC has been my radio home for nearly nine years now, and represents many milestones for me personally. It's far too much to list here, suffice to say that I'm am deeply and humbly grateful for the opportunites and experiences this ongoing experiment has afforded me. The station has been evolving over the last few months and we're preparing to grow the studio at 393 Main Steeet in Catskill into a more full-time space, in spite of recent attempts from the current administration to starve WGXC and all arts organization out of existence. If community radio means anything at all to you, please donate at wgxc.org/donate
