Besides the features that occur each program there was, I believe, some wonderful new material that has come in over our ever open transom---of special note I would mention Jaime Leopold, Robert Bobby, and a brilliant new song cycle from Philip Bimstein and Red Rock Rondo that aired in the 2d hour.  You will recall him and them from Zion Canyon Song Cycle.
