Fri, 12 August 2005 The fourth episode of Common Tone was released back in August 2005 and features a discussion on the music of American composer George Rochberg and includes Part B of his famous String Quartet No. 3 performed by the Concord Quartet. It also includes fewer digressions than normal and more stammering by Jim than in all three previous episodes combined. It was probably the Pabst Blue Ribbon. Episode 5 is now in post-production and will be released early next week, so stay tuned. In the meantime, don't forget: our new store at Zazzle.com is ready for you to peruse and sit a spell. There's a message forum so you can interact with us & leave comments or questions. Check out our new Wear It Proudly series, featuring some of the shiniest foreheads in modern classical music.

Common Tone
Common Tone does for modern classical music what Car Talk does for auto repair. Hosted by Dr. David Gaines and James Landon Jones, two old friends who love music and laughter, Common Tone seeks to promote the best in modern classical music to a new audience while being entertaining and fun. It features frequent digressions into politics, culture and other topics of the day, all handled with the same level of irreverence.
