I am loosing connection every few minutes and the I pad won't connect at all  
Crazy situation.

This must be our day for computer frustration

Yes, it is!  I can only hope it will behave for the Bizet.

That Bach is WOW!  I was jumping on my chair!

And here I am, just in time for the Bizet.

Are you in now Bubble?  I got in just fine.

Bubble it is certainly a unique transcription isn't it
Hi MarsGal
Hi JeanneP

JeanneP, I am here now .  It is my internet connection causing lots  of misery today   and since it is a holiday here, I cannot call for help
Everyone is out on picnic or camping for the long week end.

Had company for an hour, finally I can listen again

BUBBLE  internet trouble is no fun. You mean no one works at all on a holiday? Glad we can still call here 24/7 all the time.

Other must be having  problem in the US also. This message is on the Radio Station.

Don, that announcer for news now has a great  voice for it. and also ennunciating very clearly and not fast   Congrats to him.

I just showed him your response and he was overwhelmed.

  I am glad.  I hope he will succeed to a great future in radio. 
So many of them are almost mumbling or rushing as if they need to catch a train.

Oh this is a joyful piece. Mmmmmm humming together!

The condition that Paganini had is thew same that Lincoln had.  It explain why both were tall  thin, wiry.

Finale was so enjoyable, could have lasted for another hour!

Thanks and good evening to all.  Heading for bed here "

BUBBLE  I agree about that voice. So many seem to speak so fast or mumble.

DON  thank you for an enjoyable afternoon.

There may be some confusion with the starting time because some countries set their clocks back one hour this week. So please check the time in your area.
The first two hours of this week's show is dedicated to the halloween festivities with music that reflects the  'spirit' of the occasion, or stories about the composers which tie in with the macabre or mysterious.

Don. You have some of my favourites again. Number 15. Not heard that in so many years.

Not heard as to when we are changing the clocks. Seems like it gets later each year.
Does yours change in your part of Canada this weekend?
Bubble. Do the do all the time changing in Israel?  I know that most of Europe and UK does.

We are changing this week end, as they'll do in France, Belgium, etc.  Canada will change a week after I believe.

I just checked online and the US changes Sunday, November 6, that is, those states that change (Arizona does not).

Mary Ann

I wish the would just quit doing it. Gets dark to early. Why did they start it. Was it for farmers so could start early.
Indiana doesn't do it. Illinois does right next state. As we use the Indiana airport it confuses me.

JeanneP, Indiana, except for counties near Chicago, does change time in the Spring and Fall.  Illinois is in the Central Time Zone and Indiana is in the Eastern Time Zone.  Indiana and Michigan are in the same Time Zone.

Mary Ann

I am here ready and waiting. Going to sit back and just enjoy today's program. Glad to see Chopin in the mix today.

Hi Gloria.  I'm all set up and ready to go.

Here too, an hour earlier

Hi Bubble

DON  always good hearing your voice welcoming us every Sunday.

BUBBLE  Hi, I did enjoy some of that Jazz music while waiting.

I am so enjoying today's selections: all favorites. 

DON  interesting about how Chopin composed the Funeral March. I do enjoy all the information you give us about the composers of the music we enjoy.

Genius Paganini. Oh I swing with it and enjoy thoroughly
