I just happened to look at the KUSC home page and saw this show listed for tonight!

NO archive that I know of listen at 9pm Pacific, Midnight ET here:

You could put 9PM PDT in the subject line and let people figure it out

listening now, it is very good!

Sensational program--thanks for posting the heads up!

Highlights for those who were asleep? Anybody record it?

There were several pieces from various CDs, including the Hindemith Tuba Sonata, Prokofiev's Visions Fugitives ( a multi-movement piano work arranged for piano and tuba by Mr. Pokorny and his wife, Beth Lodal), and the Bach Unaccompanied in A minor for Flute (all four movements). I have always been particularly amazed by the Bach. The first movement, except for one sixteenth rest on the first beat, is all sixteenth notes, and the musicality of the playing, even in constant arpeggiated chords in the extreme registers, is stunning. Two high points for me were a recording of Jabba the Hutt with Mr. Pokorny and the Utah Symphony, and especially, the final closing credits soundtrack for "Lincoln" played by the Chicago Symphony with John Williams conducting.
The broadcast was done in California, where the Pokorny Low Brass Seminar is about to begin. When you hear Mr. Pokorny describe the playing of his teacher, Tommy Johnson, as well as his trombone colleagues for the seminar, you can tell that he has a lot of appreciation for the opportunity to be associated with those musicians. The program was a real treat for any brass musician. Maybe KUSC will make it available on the station website.
