Goes Onlineby Yaël Ksander

Speak Your Mind, WFIU’s forum for guest commentaries, is now online.

Starting this month, Speak Your Mind has its own dedicated Web page, where you can listen to new and archived commentaries, read transcripts, view bios and photos of the commentators, and learn about how to contribute your own commentary. It’s all at indianapublicmedia.org/speakyourmind.

WFIU offers Speak Your Mind for the constructive exchange of ideas and perspectives and to stimulate listeners’ thinking. We welcome a broad range of styles and subject matter—from reflections on personal experience to informed opinions about current affairs.

Listeners have shared their informed opinions about such far-flung current issues as factory conditions in Bangladesh, nuclear power since Fukushima, and the Russian takeover of Crimea, to topics closer to home such as Indiana’s time zone and efforts to control the local deer population.

Lately, we’ve been working with contributors on essays that depart from the op-ed page into less expected territory: meditation, essay, short story, tribute, parable.

A breast cancer survivor gave a wry commentary on the color pink. A wheelchair-user explained why he prefers to be called a “cripple.” A convicted felon offered his perspective on homelessness. And a mother advocated on behalf of children with autism in the wake of the Sandy Hook tragedy.

Some have taken the opportunity to remember and reflect. One speaker wrote about his mother’s journey into dementia and his own process of coming to terms with the transition. Another saluted a recently-passed champion of historic preservation. And a pair of whimsical recollections transported us back to small-town Indiana in the 1960s.

We invite you to submit an essay to Speak Your Mind. If you wish, station personnel can help you to convey your points effectively. And we will help you record your presentation for an appealing on-air presentation.

The maximum length for the segment is two minutes. Controversial topics or critical viewpoints are not discouraged, although we require references for statements of fact. Endorsements of political candidates, personal attacks, and calls to action are not accepted. WFIU also follows broader guidelines for religious or commercial material. Read complete guidelines and submission information at indianapublicmedia.org/speakyourmind.

Speak Your Mind is broadcast selected weekdays at 9 a.m. and 11:24 a.m. We hope you’ll take the opportunity to speak your mind!

Artist of the MonthWFIU’s Featured Artist for May is American educator, conductor, composer, and arranger John Boyd.

Spanning parts of six decades, John Boyd has enjoyed an international

conducting career that has taken him throughout the United States, Asia, and Europe. Boyd earned his Bachelor of Music Education and Master of Music degrees from Northwestern University and later received the Doctor of Musical Arts degree from the University of Missouri-Kansas City in 1981. He studied conducting with John P. Paynter, Bernard Rubenstein, Crawford Gates, and Glenn Block.

For over 21 years, Boyd served as the Director of Bands and coordinator of

Featured Contemporary ComposerWFIU’s featured contemporary composer for the month of May is David Lang.

One of America’s most prolific and provocative composers, David Lang was recognized in 2013 as Musical America’s Composer of the Year. He is perhaps best known for his work with the experimental collective Bang on a Can, which he co-founded in 1987 with fellow composers Michael Gordon and Julia Wolfe.

Born in Los Angeles, Lang received degrees from Stanford University and the University of Iowa before earning his doctorate of musical arts in 1989 from Yale University. His principal teachers include Lou Harrison, Martin Bresnick, Leland Smith, Jacob Druckman, Roger Reynolds, and Morton Subotnick.

Based in New York City, Lang is currently the 2013–2014 holder of the Richard and Barbara Debs Composer’s Chair at Carnegie Hall. While at Carnegie, Lang has helped to design the workshop Creating New Music, in which young composers and chamber ensembles are

the Wind/Percussion Division at Indiana State University, retiring in 2010. Prior to joining the ISU faculty in 1989, he taught at Northern Illinois University, Wichita State University, Kent State University, and the University of Arizona.

An internationally renowned conductor of wind bands, Boyd has conducted at the Royal Northern College of Music, the Philharmonic Winds of Singapore, the Central Conservatory Wind Orchestra (Beijing), and the PLA Concert Band (Beijing). He also served as the first full-time conductor of the chamber winds ensemble at Singapore’s Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music where he also taught classes in conducting and wind literature.

In 1988, Boyd co-founded the professional wind orchestra Philharmonia à Vent, serving as conductor alongside Frederick Fennell. He has guest conducted The U.S. Army Band, United States Army Field Band, and was a featured conductor at the 9th and 10th WASBE International Conferences.

As a composer and arranger of wind ensemble literature, Boyd has published more than 60 works in the catalogs of C.

Allen, Ludwig, G. Schirmer, Barnhouse, Cole, and Associated Music. He has also released more than 20 recordings featuring his conducting, including two critically acclaimed albums with the Kent State University Wind Ensemble and the album Capriccio with the Indiana State University Symphonic Wind Ensemble and Faculty Winds.

Between 2005 and 2007, Boyd released three recordings with the Philharmonia à Vent. His most recent release, Armenian Dances, features Boyd conducting the Taiwan Wind Ensemble on performances of works by Leonard Bernstein, J.S. Bach, Claude Smith, Shostakovich, and Chia-Ying Chiang.

Dr. Boyd is a member of the American Bandmasters Association, Indiana Bandmasters Association, College Band Directors National Association, and National Band Association. He previously served on the board of directors for the Conductors Guild and was Vice President (President Elect) of the Indiana Bandmasters Association.

WFIU will feature performances by John Boyd in our classical music programming throughout the month of May.

mentored in the process of creating, rehearsing, premiering, and promoting new works. He is also curating the Collected Stories project, a multi-genre series that showcases different modes of storytelling in music.

Lang’s works have been performed across the globe by various esteemed ensembles, including the BBC Symphony, the International Contemporary Ensemble, Santa Fe Opera, the New York Philharmonic, and the Kronos Quartet.

While deeply versed in the classical tradition, Lang’s music resists categorization. Some of his recent works include Death Speaks, a song cycle based on Schubert but performed by rock musicians, and The Whisper Opera, composed for the International Contemporary Ensemble and soprano Tony Arnold.

In 2008, Lang was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for music with his piece, The Little Match Girl Passion, a work that was commissioned by Carnegie Hall for the vocal ensemble Theatre of Voices and its director, Paul Hillier. Other awards include the Rome Prize and grants from the Guggenheim Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the American Academy of Arts and Letters.

Although Lang’s music may reference folk, pop, and jazz idioms, his

compositional style utilizes mathematical and formal structures. His works are also virtuosic, demanding focused concentration by musicians and audiences alike.

Discussing his views on the categorization of music for NPR’s Deceptive Cadence, Lang explained: “Musicians don’t usually imagine themselves as fitting neatly into any category. We imagine that our job is to transcend categories, to open windows and doors between musical worlds, to make something new.”

WFIU will feature music of David Lang in our classical music programming throughout the month of May.

May 19–25Arvo Pärt: Adam’s Lament(ECM New Series 2225)Latvian Radio ChoirSinfonietta RigaVox ClamantisEstonian Philharmonic Chamber ChoirTallin Chamber OrchestraTõnu Kaljuste, conductor

Sacred music, by turns powerful and fragile, is featured on this CD—winner of the Grammy award for Best Choral Performance of 2014. In Arvo Pärt’s composition Adam’s Lament for choir and string orchestra, the composer uses a poetic text by St. Silouan of Athos to emphasize a common heritage in the figure of Adam. Other works include Beatus Petronius, Salve Regina, Statuit ei Dominus, Alleluia-Tropu , and L’Abbe Agathon. The album concludes with Estonian Lullaby and Christmas Lullaby for female choir and string orchestra.

May 26–June 1Dvořák (Deutsche Grammophon B0019303-02)Anne-Sophie Mutter, violinAyami Ikeba, pianoBerlin PhilharmonicManfred Honeck, conductor

Anne-Sophie Mutter records Dvořák’s Violin Concerto, the last of the great Romantic violin concertos not yet in her discography. She pairs it with Dvořák’s fiery Mazurek , and the Romance in F minor for violin and orchestra. The album also includes Dvořák’s irresistible Humoresque, presented in its popular arrangement for violin and piano by Fritz Kreisler. The works on this recording exemplify the vivid color, melancholy, and folkloric tunefulness that are the trademarks of Dvořák’s style.

RadiolabSundays at 11 a.m.

In each hour of Radiolab, hosts Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich explore one big idea. They interview, argue, imagine, and discover the hidden connections that make the idea so powerful.

May 4 Blame

We’ve all felt it, that irresistible urge to point the finger. But new technologies are complicating age-old moral conundrums about accountability. This hour, we ask what blame does for us. Why do we need it, when is it not enough, and what happens when we try to push past it with forgiveness and mercy?

May 11Patient Zero

We start with the story of perhaps the most iconic Patient Zero of all time: Typhoid Mary. Then we dive into a molecular detective story to pinpoint the beginning of the AIDS epidemic, and wonder if you can trace the spread of an idea. In the end, we find ourselves faced with a choice between competing claims about the origin of the high five. We end the hour with the sensible, disturbing conclusion about the nature of the universe—all by way of the cowboy hat.

May 18Oops

You come up with a great idea. You devise a plan. You control for every imaginable variable. And once everything’s in place, the train hops your carefully laid tracks. In this episode, one psychologist’s zeal to safeguard national security may have created a terrorist, while one community’s efforts to protect an endangered bird had deadly consequences. And against all odds, a toxic lake spawns new life.

May 25Deception

Lies, liars, and lie catchers. This hour of Radiolab asks if it’s possible for anyone to lead a life without deception. We consult a cast of characters, from pathological liars to lying snakes to drunken psychiatrists, to understand the strange power of lying to yourself and others.

Featured Classical RecordingsSelections from each week’s featured recording can be heard throughout WFIU’s local classical music programming.

May 5–11Composing America(Bridge 9423)The Lark Quartet

The music on this recording highlights an America full of vital concert music with roots deep in the vernacular. Each work presents the listener with a distinct transformation of popular and folk music that have defined the United States. The works are by Aaron Copland, John Adams, William Bolcom, and Paul Moravec with guest musicians Jeremy Denk, Stephen Salters, and Yousif Sheronick.

May 12–18Couperin: Les Nations; Rebel: Les Caractères de la danse(Channel Classics CCS SA 33213)Florilegium

The two composers presented on this recording both came from families of musicians active at the Court of Versailles. François Couperin was organist of the Chapelle du Roi, and Jean-Féry Rebel was a violinist in the Chapelle du Roi and composer for the King. Couperin left no precise instructions as to instrumentation for his suite Les Nations. This adds versatility as the treble parts are therefore suitable for flutes, violins, or oboes or any available combination. Rebel was an innovator, and one of the first French musicians to compose sonatas in the Italian style. His ballet Les Caractères de la danse was one of his most popular and widely performed works. The works are performed by Florilegium, one of Britain’s most outstanding period instrument ensembles.

The Radio Readerwith Dick Estell

In Stitches by Anthony Youn, M.D.Approximate start date May 10

Scrubs meets David Sedaris in this hilarious fish-out-of-water memoir about a young Korean-American nerd turned plastic surgeon. Full of heart and humor, Youn’s account about becoming a doctor is unlike anything you’ve ever read before.

All Tony Youn ever wanted was to fit in. One of two Asian-American kids in a small Midwestern town, he was tall and thin with Coke-bottle glasses, a bowl cut, and a protruding jaw that grew even faster than his comic book collection. He finally got his chance to fit in during his senior year as he lay strapped in an oral surgeon’s chair having his jaw broken and reset—a brutal makeover that led him to his calling.

Egged on by his overachieving Korean father (“Doctor never get fired”), Youn spent the next four years mired in the angst, flubs, triumphs, nonstop studying, intermittent heavy drinking, and sexual frustration of medical school. He entered a shy, skinny nerd with no nerve, no game, and no clue. He left a doctor.

Heartwarming and laugh-out-loud funny, In Stitches is a universal coming-of-age story about a kid who found the best in himself by bringing out the best in others and finally learned to be comfortable in his own skin.

Anthony Youn, M.D. is a physician, writer, and television personality. He has been featured on The Rachael Ray Show, Dr. 90210, Good Morning America, The O’Reilly Factor, and others.

He’s a frequent contributor to MSNBC.com where he’s written such articles as “Why You Should Avoid the Hospital in July” which has gone viral.


Leaders of the 17 public radio and TV stations who are members of Indiana Public Broadcasting Stations gathered at the Statehouse in March to discuss how their stations serve Indiana communities.

Radio-TV General Manager Perry Metz and WFIU Stations Operations Director Will Murphy were among those who met informally with lawmakers in Indianapolis.

The broadcasting leaders are from radio and TV stations that reach an estimated 500,000 Indiana residents each week. The broadcasters also met with Governor Pence, State Treasurer Richard Mourdock, State Auditor Connie Lawson, and Attorney General Greg Zoeller.

WFIU’s David Wood Looks Back, and ForwardDavid Wood is moving back to his home state of Kansas after seven productive years as WFIU’s music director. The move was prompted when David’s wife Caela, a pastor, was called by a congregation in Manhattan, Kansas. The couple has two boys, ages 2 and 4.

Returning to the Sunflower State will allow David to focus more of his attention on being a singer and choral conductor. He’s accepted a position with Ecumenical Campus Ministries at Kansas State University as Director of Vocational Exploration and Outreach to help implement a recently-awarded grant from Eli Lilly and Company.

One of David’s early goals as music director was to stabilize WFIU’s ever-shifting music programming.

“I had the idea of creating a schedule of programs which listeners could rely on week in, week out. Now we have several 52 week programs with regular ‘homes’ in our schedule, including the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Sounds Choral, and With Heart and Voice.

David also sought to bring more contemporary music to WFIU’s schedule. The result was Horizons in Music, a weekly hour of contemporary music that he hosted for two years.

The accomplishment he’s most proud of is bringing live studio performances to the airwaves. During his tenure, WFIU began airing the Live from Jacobs broadcasts, which over the past year has brought seven broadcasts from the Jacobs School to listeners, including the first live radio broadcast from the IU Opera Theater. Regular, in-studio performances on WFIU’s local classical and jazz shows are now a fixture of WFIU’s programming.

Also leaving us at this month is local Weekend Edition Sunday host Alexandra Morphet. She and her husband Jonathan are spending much of the next year away from Bloomington, so she is not able to continue her weekend on-air shift. Her voice brought a bit of brightness to the morning, and we will miss her friendly presence. We wish her the best of luck and hold open the possibility she may yet return to the WFIU airwaves.

Staffers Toast David WoodPast and present WFIU staff members share their experiences of working with David Wood.

In early 2006, George Walker asked for my opinion about the audition tapes few recent announcer candidates. David’s tape impressed me with the down-to-earth quality of his voice. I’ve never been to Kansas, but I think that’s maybe what I heard in it.

Yaël KsanderWFIU Producer/Announcer

David was patient with teaching me how to construct a tight one-hour program for the airwaves. His guidance though my tenure with WFIU has proven invaluable and something I utilize to this day.

Tom BerichFormer Ether Game hostAnnouncer, Jefferson Public RadioAshland, Oregon

David has done great work guiding the selection of music, interviewing artists, and organizing and digitizing the music library. Since I moved away from Bloomington, he has been a supportive colleague from afar.

Mona SeghatoleslamiFormer WFIU Music AssistantHost/producer at WXXI in Rochester, NY

When I think of David, I'll recall someone who jetted ably among all the seemingly isolated planets in the musical universe. Early music? Choral? Celtic? Check, check, check.

John BaileyWFIU Program Director

David was an invaluable resource for both technical and musical questions. He was always willing to take time to chat about music and musicians of any era, and he wore many hats.

Anna CooganFormer WFIU Music Librarian

I’m so impressed with what David has done with the classical music programming at WFIU. Expanding live performances, regularizing the schedule, and strengthening our ties with the Jacobs School—he took the station to another level. I hope he will look back with pride on the many folks he helped mentor at WFIU, who’ve gone on to great careers in public broadcasting.

Will MurphyWFIU Station Operations Director

David Wood was a great boss. He always trusted me with new tasks, and he allowed me to take on my own projects in the music library. I'm sure he will leave a large hole at WFIU.

NPR Launches an “Infinite” Digital Listening ExperienceNPR is working with stations such as WFIU to bring you, through iTunes and the iPhone, a public radio experience unlike any you’ve had in the digital world.

In the last few weeks, NPR has become the first provider of news and information on iTunes Radio. Visitors to iTunes Radio now will find an NPR-branded tile that links to a 24-hour stream of hourly NPR newscasts, Morning Edition, All Things Considered, and other news and cultural programming.

But, in keeping with the goal of NPR’s acting CEO, Paul Haaga, to offer a “local/national listening experience, with a mix of national and local program offerings,” the channel will begin by this summer to incorporate the streams of member stations such as WFIU.

Later this year, the round-the-clock NPR stream will be removed, and iTunes Radio will redirect users in this area to a WFIU-branded stream.

The stream will be similar to that found in NPR’s new app, the Infinite Player. The app is the first version of a platform, likened to a “Pandora for news,” that NPR has been promising for more than a year.

When you open the app, you can customize it by entering a ZIP code from the WFIU listening area. Then you’ll begin to hear a shuffled mix of audio stories both from NPR and from throughout WFIU’s online offerings: news, arts, A Moment of Science, and more.

In addition, the app allows you to mark individual stories of interest, offer feedback, share stories on social media, and click through for an online-pledge link.

The app is in an open beta-testing phase. If you have an iPhone, then you can participate in the beta test now. Just point your mobile browser to n.pr/mobilebeta. And please let us know what you think!

9:00 PM HARMONIAQuit Your Day JobA lot of parents aren’t thrilled with the idea of their child pursuing a career in music. This isn’t a new sentiment. This week, we’ll hear music by astrologers, cabinet makers, poets, and others who ducked, or bucked, their non-musical lives to compose music of lasting power.

Note: Daily listings are as complete as we can make them at press time, and we strive to provide full program information whenever possible. Some programs, however, do not provide us with information about their content. We include the titles of those programs as a convenience. When we receive no program information for a given day, the day will not appear in the listings. For a complete list of WFIU’s schedule, see the program grid on pages 8 and 9.

It’s been a long, hard winter, and for most of us, spring is a welcome relief. The birds fly home, the ground thaws, and if you’re a gardener, you finally get to dig around in the dirt. This week we harvest musical blooms from across the centuries—flowers and fruit and everything green.

10:00 PM NIGHT LIGHTSYoung Wynton: Early MarsalisTrumpeter Wynton Marsalis has become a prominent and sometimes-controversial spokesperson for jazz.

Patient Zero

12:00 PM HARMONIAAnd One Was a SoldierWe’ll head into battle for a sampling of music by, for, or about soldiers. For many musicians of the past, war was personal; it ravaged their cities, starved their loved ones, drove them to flee, or inspired them to fight. And, sometimes, it influenced what they wrote. We’ll explore music with military ties on this edition of Harmonia.

Oops

12:00 PM HARMONIAElegiesWhat’s the right way to commemorate loss? For many composers grappling with the death of a colleague or patron, the best memorial proved to be music.

Coming Back with Wes Moore Tuesdays at 8 p.m., May 13 through 27

U.S. Army veteran Wes Moore searches for answers to the most difficult questions facing war veterans.

Coming Back (May 13) explores why some veterans easily reintegrate into society after deployment and why some struggle. Moore speaks with Bonnie Collins, mother of fellow officer Brian Collins, who committed suicide after marrying and starting a new career. The questions surrounding the tragedy initiate Wes’ desire to learn more about why some can get on with their lives while some cannot.

Fitting In (May 20) explores the notion of identity—how it’s altered during deployment and altered again on return home.

Moving Forward (May 27) examines veterans’ drive to find a new mission, to contribute, to be part of something bigger than themselves.

Independent Lens: A Fragile Trust: Plagiarism, Power and Jayson Blair at The New York TimesMonday, May 5 at 10 p.m.

Samantha Grant’s film tells the shocking story of Jayson Blair, a promising young African-American reporter for The New York Times, who plagiarized the work of other reporters and supplemented his own reporting with fabricated details. The fact that Blair is African-American was emphasized as accounts of the affair served up sordid details in a tale of deception, drug abuse, racism, mental illness, hierarchy, white guilt, and power struggles. Pundits hotly debated accusations of favoritism, lowered standards for minorities, and racism in the newsroom, while minority journalists said they felt as if their work was under the microscope because of Blair’s lies.

Anyone Can Leave a LegacyWe tend to associate the concept of “leaving a legacy” with great wealth. But it’s not only the very wealthy who leaves legacies. Legacies can take many shapes—anything from tangible property to life lessons or accomplishments that inspire others can comprise a legacy.

Have you thought about your legacy? What joy will you leave for your loved ones and for the organizations you believe in?

When you provide for the people you hold dear, you ensure a legacy of caring. Once you have provided for your family and friends, you may wish to turn to personal philanthropy for organizations you cherish. Should you include WFIU in your will, you will enable WFIU to strengthen the programs you care about, and leave a legacy that will be appreciated by future listeners.

There are simple ways to leave a legacy. The simplest are designating WFIU as a beneficiary of a retirement or insurance plan, or naming WFIU in your will.

You may designate that your gift be devoted to a specific purpose. Or you can let WFIU decide how best to use your gift to further its mission—an unrestricted gift. And since these types of gifts are inherently flexible, you can make adjustments should your family or charitable goals change. This flexibility is one of the most attractive features of making a gift using a will or beneficiary designation.

If you’ve made a provision for WFIU in your estate planning, thank you! Please let us know so you can become a member of our Limestone Legacy Circle—our way of honoring those who have made a planned gift to the station.

For more information, contact Nancy Krueger, Gifts and Grants Officer at Radio-Television Services, at 812-855-2935 or [email protected].
