Welcome back to the marathon!!

loving the atmospheric works as I get ready for bed!

I agree, this is an excellent vibe check for the late sleepers. I can only imagine the wonderful dreams one may have listening at this hour.

Unraveling was incredible. Enjoying this Miyabi Guitar Duo piece as well

Oooh, I like this Teresa Wong piece with Sarah Cahill performing, a lot!

I sent a link to the Miriama Young piece, “Time and Tide,” to my Australian friend who lives in Philly but is visiting his mother in Sydney right now. He might appreciate that one. He grew up in an apartment on Sydney Harbor

Hello Mr. Rosen! I've been listening since midnight and what you've been playing is Pure Gold!!! Been listening to your Marathon the last 12 or so years, and just wanted to stop by and say "Thank You"...

Hi Alan! Thank you so much for your kind words!! I greatly appreciate them!!! Have a wonderful New Year and 2024!!

Happy New Year Mr. Rosen!!!

Harp and bassoon mesh, floating gently through the air, gently through my mind

It's morning in Germany and I have just joined the marathon again. Thank you Marvin for this exciting music from all over the world! Wishing you a very happy, prosperous New Year!

Thanks so much Dorothee!! Wishing you a wonderful New Year as well!!

Hello

I'm sure you know where it's at

Bet you weren't ready for that

Good morning, Marvin! Greetings from Binghamton, NY. It's a privilege to listen to your broadcast this morning. Thank you so much for supporting my music and the work of generations of composers everywhere. Wishing you and Beata a warm, joyful, and fulfilling new year!

And this Harpreet Bansal composition also got my full attention 🎻

I have to go take a long winter's nap. Best of luck to you Marvin during the home stretch. Wishing a safe and happy new year to you and yours. I'll catch the remainder in the time tunnel. Peace - tomp

Hey Dave!! My timing was good!

Thanks Metomp!! Happy new year to you and your family also!!

Ferocious finale in the Rounds!

Thank you for exposing us, and all of the listeners, to so much beautiful music this year, and for the past 23 hours with one more to go. This is why I support this station, and will continue to spread the good word. What we have here is more than just radio. Art and soul.

Yes. .. a wisp.

Thank you ALL for tuning in, and I hope you enjoyed the movement from my "...wisp of a symphony..."

@Bob - Very engaging.

Thank You metomp - I'll take that over interesting any day of the week!

Cheers, Bob! Thank you for the wonderful piece 🙏

I'm soon to hop aboard the Dreamland express, I hope everyone has a wonderful NYE.

@TAndy - you don't know how grateful I am!

Thanks, Marvin, for the tremendous program. And thanks to all the modern composers for sharing their creativity.

@Bob - keep the faith.

I wonder when the 24 hour New Abnormal Marathon will take place... 🧐

@TAndy - pleasant dreams

I want to take this opportunity to thank you all so much for joining me for the 24 hour marathon "Viva 21st Century" - I had loads of fun putting the show together and presenting it. The music composers are writing today is so varied and should be much more exposed!! Bottom line! We music support our living composers!! Have a Happy New Year!! I will be back on Wednesday from 7:00am until noon for my annual program "Shall We Dance" - Once again, thank you so much for joining me!!
