@retroporter @KUOW Thanks for this, Gregg. I appreciate you letting me know that Doug was sick a few months back. I was able to reach out one last time. Such a fine fellow.

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

So proud to support the work of my friend and @KingFM colleague @QuintonIMorris

@TatevikAprikyan @Newsy Great topic for this space geek!

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@retroporter Clearly they are playing from the mix and match holiday classic: “Play a Song of Christmas” I haul it out every year for whatever motley crew of players I can round up.

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@gabrielspitzer Thanks for this, Gabe! So does Scott Selfon, a high tech sound engineer violist/chorister whose Hannukah Glow we played earlier this morning. Our music director has kept the selections local to a large degree!

@museumofflight @MoPOP @kexp @KZOKFM @957TheJet @941thesoundsea @pchh @SeattleWolf @noisecompsea @c895radio @Warm1069 Richard Strauss: Also Sprach Zarathustra. Make sure you stick around after “Sunrise” because there’s a lot more great stuff ahead!!

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@edronco You folks have a deep bench!

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@KANtext We enjoyed that one our own selves. Pass the Zero Gravity Salsa!!

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@gabrielspitzer @KingFM The way the chorus collectively sighed “awwwwww” cracked me up. “The world’s most justfiably neglected composer…”

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@retroporter Like an unjustly neglected classic, high time for a revival don’t you think?!

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@retroporter @KingFM @KUOW Agreed. Yep, LOVE that recording with all sorts of cool gems.

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@retroporter @KingFM @KUOW Did I introduce you or you me? I always think of you when I hear the piece, Gregg. Thanks for getting me started on the journey. Thinking of you as you continue to honor your friend’s life and memory.

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@WriterLouisa What a pleasure to present!! Thanks so much

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@guru_stu @KingFM We have a lot of fun with the daily "toss." Really appreciate you listening and writing!!

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@JamesEhnes @danielagreda My friend Sammanda, assistant principal cello in Peru’s National Orchestra, and her colleagues, would be over the moon to have you come down and play, James! I hope it works out!!! Your new Ysaye is awesome!! We played your Bruch 2 on KING FM this week. Loved it.

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@WriterLouisa Love that film. Gonna watch it again soon.

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@WriterLouisa Crank it up loud, Louise! Thanks for the note and happy storytelling!!

[Dave Beck @DaveKINGFM]

@SchildeMartin @KingFM You're right, Martin. Thanks for staying up late with us! 🌙Dave

@guru_stu @KingFM KUOW was the old station Stu. But it’s one big happy public radio family. Thanks for listening!!
