Arcadia = any real or imaginary place offering peace and simplicity. Ades' "Arcadiana" posits that it offers the same. Tune in tonight at 7:00 to find out.

Beethoven's 1st (Piano Concerto) was completed after the 2nd (Piano Concerto) which was started first, ten years previously and the 4th (Piano Concerto) was completed within the next ten years. Your wait between the 1st and 4th concertos will be much shorter!

The concerto-style of composition (a solo instrument versus the ensemble) clearly works for violin with 'sound evidence' in Beethoven's Romances for Violin and Orchestra. Does it work for electronica?
