MUSIC OF THE INFINITE MIND #3
Broadcast starting week of October 31, 2007
In our third annual presentation of musical artists who have visited the studios of The Infinite Mind to perform and discuss their songs, we travel from Bernstein to Broadway, Nashville to the West Village ... and to the East Village as well.
The program begins with Linda Muggleston singing "100 Easy Ways to Lose a Man" from the Leonard Bernstein's first Broadway show, the Tony-award winning Wonderful Town. Muggleston performed the song before a live audience of 3,500 at our State of Mind: America 2004 presentation at Radio City Music Hall in May 2004.
Carrie Newcomer shares two songs, both of them for our show on dreams: "Sparrow" and "Moon Over Tuscon."
Longtime New York singer/songwriter Suzanne Vega explains the inspirations and meaning behind her ballad "The Queen and The Soldier," while the Nashville group BR5-49 takes us back to the 1950s with a performance of Hank Williams' great hit, "Your Cheatin' Heart."
Next, we return to Radio City Music Hall and our live State of Mind: America 2004 production and a visit from the cast of the surprising Broadway musical hit, Avenue Q. In the Tony Award-winning play, a crew of puppets living in New York's East Village offer up a kind of Sesame Street for adults as they explore the word of the day, "Schadenfreude," German for those who gain pleasure in the misery of others.
Nora York is a singer, composer, and vocal teacher in New York. She joins us to perform one of her signature pieces, "What I Want," fromprogram on "Satisfaction."
Dublin-born Susan McKeown uses the music of tradition to explore her desire to be a mother in "Mother of Mine," from The Infinite Mind program "Pregnancy and the Mind."
From the Tony award-winning musical Wicked (the story of Oz told from the standpoint of the witch), Eden Espinosa performs the show-stopping "The Wizard and I" at our State of Mind live broadcast at Radio City Music Hall. Finally, longtime The Infinite Mind commentator John Hockenberry (with guitar) ruminates on the true measure of fame, as he pictures his own life as TV biography (guitar and all!)
