Cór Ainglí is going to be singing on our local NPR affiliate this coming Saturday (November 9)! I don't know how many songs we'll get to do, but we'll probably do "Thugamar Féin an Samhradh Linn" and "Rug Muire Mac do Dhia," since those are a couple of our more "up-tempo" pieces (our slower pieces are lovely, but when you're trying to grab an audience's attention in a relatively short period of time, you want to get their toes tapping). We've also discussed doing "An Mhaighdean Mhara," even though it's a slower song, as the tune will be recognizable to at least some of the listeners (this particular show tends to feature music from the British Isles, and from Ireland especially). Mary will make the final decision later this week.

Anyway, if you want to hear us live, you can go to http://www.kusp.org around 1:00 p.m. (around 9:00 p.m. in Ireland, if I'm counting correctly) and click on "Listen Live." If you miss the live show, each week's show is usually archived and downloadable as a podcast (the name of the show is "Continental Drift"). Of course, if you do happen to find yourself in the Monterey Bay area, you can also just tune your radio to 88.9 FM.

We're going to be on a different radio program on a different station early in the morning the following Friday. I'll post those details as soon as I have them.

Just a reminder that Cór Ainglí will be on the radio tomorrow afternoon sometime between 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. U.S. Pacific Standard Time (between 9:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. in Ireland) to sing a few songs from our upcoming concerts.

To listen, go to www.kusp.org and click on "Listen Live."

We'll probably be singing "Thugamar Féin an Samhradh Linn" and "Rug Muire Mac do Dhia." If there's time for a third song, it will probably be "Deus Meus." Probably a fair amount of chat as well.

The whole "Continental Drift" program is worth a listen, as the presenter tends to choose really good music!

Hope you can tune in!

Go raibh maith agat!

If you missed hearing us today, the program will be available at the KUSP website for the coming week. The name of the program is "Continental Drift," and we come on about 1/2 hour/40 minutes in.

Here's a direct link. Click on "Listen to Recent Show":

Sadly, there's some distortion through computer speakers.
