In the dark winters of WW2 in Holland, the tulip bulb became a source of food for the starving. The flower has been an aphrodisiac and a sex symbol. To peel away the petals and examine the history and majesty of the tulip, Shelagh was joined by 2 guests from Ottawa. "The Tulip" by Anna Pavord is published by Raincoast Books.

Extractions: Program Notes: IBERIA As with many of the projects Iâve undertaken over the years, my motivation for playing Iberia âwhich must surely count as the most marvelous realization of the Spanish spirit ever to grace the piano literatureâstems simply from wanting to share with audiences music that I feel has at least a small chance to enter the repertoire, but which for various reasons hasnât been given the attention it deserves. In this particular case the challengesâIâm tempted to say obstacles âwere many; the toil and trouble involved in polishing every detail of the intricate and gnarly pianistic writing is really unlike anything I personally have ever encountered. I must mention that the existence of a new âurtextâ edition (published by Schott in Spain) greatly facilitated my work on these pieces, and is now the only logical choice for any pianist wishing to study this splendid collection. This edition provided me with vast amounts of illuminating information and demonstrates in a frequently startling way how carelessly the first editionâand each subsequent oneâhad been put together.

Extractions: AT BROOKHAVEN LAB, APR. 13 First-prize winner of the 1985 Carnegie Hall American Music Competition, Mr. Hamelin has won the favor of critics from the U.S., Canada and Europe. In fact, Harold C. Schonberg of The New York Times has described Mr. Hamelin as "a supervirtuoso." A native of Canada and the recipient of several awards from the Canada Arts Council, Mr. Hamelin studied at the Vincent d'Indy School of Music, then emigrated to the U.S., and earned his Bachelor's and Master's degrees in music from Temple University. He has recorded almost 30 compact discs, and his recording of Charles-Valentin Alkan's Concerto for Solo Piano received 1993 nominations for both the Grammy and Gramophone Record of the Year. Earlier this season, Mr. Hamelin had performed in concert with his wife, Jody Karin Applebaum, in a "Classical Cabaraet" at Brookhaven Lab. He will perform solo in the April 13 concert, with a program that consists of Charles Ives' Piano Sonata No. 2, "Concord, Massachusetts, 1840-1860"; Johann Sebastian Bach's Organ Prelude and Fugue in D Major (transcribed for piano by Ferruccio Busoni); and Max Reger's Variations and Fugue on a Theme of Bach, Op. 81.
