Hi Susan, Hi Marvin! Great start to the marathon!!!

Hi Readie! Yes, amazing compositions!

I love the harp piece!

Me too... so beautiful!

Hello everyone! I am here!

YAY!

Hi Marvin! Wishing you a happy new year and happy marathon!

Hello Marvin, greetings from Germany! What a pleasure to listen to you and your music again!

Great to be doing this! I have my tea and energy drinks and having a great time!

Off to a fantastic start, Marvin! ✨️I'm looking forward to listening as much as possible for the next 23 hours & 6 minutes.

Hi Christine! Thanks! Hope you enjoy! The first hour went by so fast!

Hello Marvin, I am really enjoying your selections and making some delicious food in the background! Wishing you a great MARATHON! (it already is) and very hoary NEW YEAR!

I love this composition!

Hello Marvin! Very much enjoying this exciting start to your wonderful marathon - a fascinating musical journey around the world!

This piece is great!

Get ready for the bass drum!

Love it!

So happy to join the marathon, Marvin!

Wonderful selections, Marvin! Hi to all in the chat. 🎉🎊💥

Thank you all for tuning in!

Bending blue notes on guitar??!!! Alert the authorities!!! Ha. I am so glad that you do this every year Marvin. Thank you and thank you WPRB!!!!

The Eryilmaz fiddling frenzy piece had me shuffling my feet furiously in the kitchen. That was wonderful.

BAM!!!

Howdy Marvin! Really loving this one. Thanks for doing this marathon! Happy New Year everyone!

I just remembered to remember to tune in. first 4 minutes have been great!!

Thanks to all of you and Happy New Year!

Upon An Ocean 🌊 was excellent. Really enjoyed thst piece.

Lisa Nandi is really gifted composer! I wish more of her stuff was available!

What a cool piece!

What a variety of works, Marvin!

Yay, Martin!

I think that variety is a key word when describing 21st century music!

Agreed!

Thanks so much, Marvin, for airing my "Dream Landscapes" tonight!

My pleasure, Dace!

Gorgeous!

Hello, this sounds like a holy temple of time in the Legend of Zelda series

What an ending! That bass!!!

Galina Grigorjeva!!! Holy music...

Another great piece!

Marvin, listening to your programs is like getting free musicology, composition and World Music classes!

Thanks so much, Marvin, for presenting my Ginkyo-ya "pendula"! I feel so honored being programmed in the surrounding of so many wonderful pieces and composers. Going to listen more of the marathon tonight and tomorrow...

Love the march in this

Good evening everyone. Marvin, we've been listening for the last hour and are enjoying the show.

Hi Christine, I saw the Red-necked Grebe!

This piece is stunning. 6 pianos!

Congratulations, Rob! That's fantastic.

This has been so great! I particularly liked the 'Sacred Circle'

Thank you Richard Lyons! :-)

Marvin, thanks so much for playing "Sacred Circle"... it's such an honor to be included on your marathon program!

Such an increadible lineup of works!!!

Thanks, Christine! It was my first in over 7 years.

That "Sacred Circle" piece was something else! 💙

Marvin! Marathon! Magnificent!

Thank you TAndy!

I'm chiming in also to say that Sacred Circle was terrific.

Good one, Christine! 🤣I agree.

Bibi was here and left!! Moosh is now snoring!!

Hello Mr. Rosen and everybody.. Wow was listening to the Puts track on FM and Really Enjoyed it! And played by the Philadelphia Orchestra no less!

Awww, nite-nite Marathon-Moosh!

Thank you Christine and Jimboo! (blush)

@ Marvin Rosen (host) Tremendous marathon show already, Marvin, and we're into less than a quarter of it so far. I was especially moved by the introduction and music of "Contact" by Kevin Puts.

Nice touch of "Silent Night" Silverman's composition. LOVE flugelhorn!

"Contact" is indeed a moving piece! I agree with Richard.

@ Marvin Rosen (host) And belated congratulations on the silver (25th) anniversary of your golden Wednesday morning show "Classical Discoveries." All the best to everyone for 2023 -- and beyond!

@ Eleni Lomvardou Thanks, Eleni, for your added praise. It's one of the many things I treasure about Marvin's braodcasts: The classics are wonderful and should (and will) stay with us. But it's such a joy to hear tomorrow's classic today as he opens the treasury of tremendous 21st century creativity.

@Richard. New music is as inportant as old music and programs like Marvin;s are rare to find!!!

@ Eleni Lomvardou Hear, hear! And I'm glad we can hear Marvin ... here!

Here,hear!,,

The "Frozen Reflections" track reminds me of that cold spell we had during Christmas...certainly nothing "warm" in this composition! 7 deg. F. biting cold..

Agreed, Eleni Lomvardou. Classical Discoveries is a rara avis.

Lovin' the marathon, Marvin!

This would make an excellent film score!

This too! (Competello)

This is so sinister. Love it

Night shift checking in...

Yeooo Tandy and metomp💥

Hey everyone. love the drums on this one

This Bollon piece seems to have "shades" of Holst "The Planets" in it...or is it just me???

Alan...this piece is definitely from outer space 💥🚀

" I ran my Karma over my Dogma" :)

👂🏻

What is uP, DTO?

Marvin...you are a STAR 💫

Good evening, jimboo, and everyone.

MARV IS THE MAN

Froiday innit TAndy

Horse Gallup in this "Wolf" piece

Good evening DTO, Matt, and Alan. Nearly Sa'uh'day, innit.

@ Tandy: Tonight is a treat to classical music..At Night!

Music to get me through my final full work shift of 2022!

The Tan Dun piece had everyone in the house talking. We loved it!

I am back!

Greetings

and Felicitations!

Almost New Year’s Eve!

Ooh, this sub bass.

GREAT PIECE!

Hey, Marv, it's Brett. I hope all is well. It's been a couple of years. I miss you.

Hey Brett! How are doing? What is going on? I think I saw you last at the 2019 marathon!

Yes, that's right. I am well. I hope we can get a chance to catch up. Do you want to meet up after the show tomorrow?

I am doing my show in my home just for now!

Let’s get together though! Would be great to see you!

Do you still have my number? I tried emailing you last year at your Classical Discoveries site but it didn't seem to work.

Try my email again. Marvinrosen@classicaldiscoveries.org

I just sent you a message. Hope to talk to you soon. Be well.

Sounding good, Marvin!

But the playlist has other ideas about Ingrid’s name. 😺

Or maybe it’s my phone having trouble with umlauts and the double s?
