Episode Description
[From WQXR web site] Bach: Solace and Inspiration Sunday, September 11, 2011 Decade 9/11 More Immediately after the attacks of September 11, 2001, WNYC began non-stop news coverage, keeping New Yorkers crucially informed from our studios just blocks from the World Trade Center. Like many, Producer/Host David Garland, was shaken by the attacks, which had at first swept aside the former significance of now apparently trivial things like art and music. But as the intense emergency of 9/11 subsided, Garland turned to the music of 18th Century German composer Johann Sebastian Bach. Moved by Bach's deep emotion, the beauty of Bach's musical logic, and the profound way Bach's music is able to express the truths and ideals of humanity, Garland created "Bach: Solace and Inspiration," to inaugurate WNYC's return to music programming on September 23, 2001. Through music and brief commentary, Garland and special guests convey the introspective and universal, heart-felt and uplifting marvels of Bach's work. Guests on the program include British conductor Sir John Elliot Gardiner, harpsichordist Arthur Haas, and Rick Ericson, Cantor of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in New York City. Hester Furman, then Music Director of WNYC, helped produce the program. For this tenth anniversary of 9/11, David Garland has assembled highlights from "Bach: Solace and Inspiration." The program airs Sunday, Sept. 11 from 4 to 6 pm.
