Hi Chris, Just tuned in now. Was watching Amazing Race Canada. Peter and the Wolf—we listened to that a lot when I was a kid. Brings back lots of good memories.

How did you hatch this idea for a show? It’s a good one.

10:09 PM, July 25th, 2023

Shelley Ann Morris
Carnival of the Animals—another favourite.

Correction: a little bird has just told me that the piece by Beethoven is being played by the Vienna Philharmonic, conducted by Leonard Bernstein, but I'd said in the programme that Peter and the Wolf was played by them. That's been corrected on the Playlist.

Shelley, it sounds as if you may have missed the introduction to Peter And The Wolf, it's the voice of David Bowie, he did a great job.

Shelley Ann Morris
Yes, I don’t remember David Bowie being on any of the recordings that I heard growing up. So many classical pieces have, or elude to, birdsong.

Chris Lyne (host)
Goodnight everyone, thanks for listening.

Another excellent show as always—for the most part, nice, calming music. Clarice kept looking around, trying to find the birds!

10:56 PM, July 25th, 2023

Chris Lyne (host)
Thanks Shelley, the birds are safely back in the trees now Clarice :-)

Yes. Always makes me think of moustaches. Seemed back in the day that anyone who liked them had one.

Chris Lyne (host)
Curious, as none of the band had one.
