+
+ Sunday evening October 20 from 1930-2000 (19:30-20:00) EDT Public
+ Broadcasting Stations can record a feed of a half hour program called
+ "If it's not a piano, what is it?" This show is accessible through
+ Transponder 7U (7 Upper). If you have a dish and wish to pick it up, the
+ satellite is Telstar 401. This show features the harpsichord with Don
+ Angle playing pops and Christmas music with an orchestra, Peter Marshall
+ playing contemporary works and a section with Laurence Libin and the
+ Metropolitan Museum of Art's Christofori.
+
+ If you have a PBS Station near you, call and encourage them to take the
+ feed and play the show at a later date - possibly during the holiday
+ season. This uplink is the only one scheduled at this time.
+ Please pass this information along to anyone who might be interested.
+
+ This program will also be available for home use in VHS format from
+ Continuo Marketplace. This will be for about $20. Don't know about
+ SECAM or PAL.
+
+ This production is a venture from the donors of the Alienor Awards
+ (contemporary works for harpsichord) of the Southeastern
+ Historical Keyboard Society. This is another way to promote early music
+ and the harpsichord in particular.
+
+ The production was done with the assistance of filmaker Barbara Addy of
+ Philadelphia.
+
+ If you have any questions please direct them to me privately.
