Special Encore Presentation: Music technology and its impact on the recording industry

4/9/2013
Technology has played an indispensable role in the development of the production, distribution, and the sound of music since the 1980s. The late 19th and the 20th century have seen incredible advances in music technology, but the 1980s seem to be the boiling point when advances in technology influenced the births of more genres of music than ever. It was a time of great economic change, which helped greatly in funding the production and distribution of emerging technologies in electronics and computers. Musicians (and non-musicians) were able to create new forms of music with new electronic instruments My guest, singer song-writer Rebecca Feynberg will explore in depth this trend and perform some of her songs.

Special Encore Presentation: From Russia speechless

4/2/2013
In September of 1979 a young special education teacher and speech pathologist had arrived in New York. His immigration status – political refugee. Two suitcases, eighty dollars, and limited English, that is all he was able to bring with him from the Soviet Union. The story looks like thousands of stories that have taken place in the 70s and the 80s when a mass exodus of Soviet Jews was made possible by the world community. What separated this young man from the thousands of other whose stories were also unique, was what he went through before he was able to land in the country of his dream?
