WRR 101.1 is joined for the first time by the Arts District Chorale (ADC) in its annual Car-oling at the Adolphus, holiday program Tuesday, Dec. 15. The ADC is composed of 80 extraordi-nary voices whose repertoire is forged in excel-lence. It has thrilled Dallas audiences since 1989 with beautiful renditions of both contemporary and traditional selections.

“We are honored that the Arts District Chorale will be part of Classical 101.1’s Caroling at the Adolphus, our annual gift to the city,” said WRR program director Kurt Rongey. “Our goal is to improve our offering each year and with ADC as part this year’s event, we believe we have.”

Some things just get better with age. And nothing reflects this better than Caroling at the Adolphus, a holiday tradition WRR Classical 101.1 began 25 years ago. Dec. 14-18 from noon to 1 p.m. at the majestic Adolphus Hotel at 1321 Commerce Street in Dallas, Classical 101.1 rekindles this yuletide musical celebration.

In the time that has passed since Caroling at the Adolphus began, so much has changed. What hasn’t changed, though, is the warmth and

glow of this Classical 101.1 gift to the city. “We look forward to this event each year,” said Greg Davis, WRR General Manager. “It had an impact on the children who attended it as youngsters and today, a quarter century later, it’s also touching their own young children. It’s the kind of holiday magic that truly connects generations.”

Sponsoring WRR’s Caroling at the Adolphus are the Meadows Museum, Armen Oriental Rug Cleaning, Aneita Fern, Dougherty’s Pharmacy, Bank of America and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra.

“For a quarter of a century, we have brought some of the most beautiful voices in North Texas to The Adolphus,” said Adolphus Managing Director Craig Scott. “We are delighted that this tradition continues to bring comfort and joy to the community---and provides another wonderful reason to visit downtown during the Christmas season.”

Caroling is broadcast live each day and the public is invited to attend free of charge. Guests are invited to enjoy holiday drinks and snacks, including coffee, hot cider and cookies. Because of the popularity of this traditional offering, seating is limited and is on a first-come, first served basis.

Join WRR Classical 101.1 for an intimate art history lesson on Texas art and an opportunity to meet Classical 101.1’s morning host Amy Bishop Dec. 6 from 1-3 p.m. We’re broadcasting live from Fort Worth’s Kimbell Art Museum’s From the Private Collections of Texas: European Art. The

exhibit puts into perspective the history of the state’s appetite for world-class art.

The show includes pieces that came to Texas during the oil boom era of Spindletop to works added as recently as this year. Private Collections explores the stories of the men and women who struck it rich with art treasure, paintings and sculpture created by Europe’s masters. The collection’s foundation is built on names like Monet, Renoir, Gauguin, van Gogh and Picasso and many more. Forty Texas collectors claim ownership of these iconic art works.

“It will be a rare treat to see so many important works from private collections,” said Eric M. Lee, Director of

the Kimbell Art Museum. “Amazing! That’s the

only word for this show,” said Classical 101.1’s Amy Bishop. “You can view this exhibit and walk away with an art education, certainly a new appreciation for the discerning eyes of some very special Texans.” Until now, many of these works have hung exclusively in the homes and private collections of these Lone Star art connoisseurs.

Private Collections ends its Fort Worth run March 21.

Thousands of shoppers will pass through Dallas landmark NorthPark Center this holiday season. While each will have a different holiday experience, one thing the shoppers will share is the music they’ll hear from the moment they enter NorthPark until they walk out the door and head home.

Each wing of NorthPark will have its own unique sounds, including one specifically tailored for young children. “We tried to provide a unique listening experience for everyone,” said WRR 101.1 Program Director Kurt Rongey. “As you move from one section of NorthPark to another, the music will change. Depending on where you are you might hear something very upbeat, or in another part of NorthPark, something more traditional. And because we know the anxieties that often come with holiday shopping, we’ve also created a musical playlist designed

to take the edge off and provide a moment of tranquility amid the hustle and bustle.”

Classical 101.1 will also emcee live performances by the Turtle Creek Chorale and the Dallas Wind Symphony in the North Court beginning at 5 p.m. December 6 and 13. We hope you find time to join WRR 101.1 and NorthPark and celebrate this year’s “Season of Wishes.”

The Visiting Nurse Association’s Diamond Jubilee is drawing to a close. It’s been an eventful 12 months, filled with memorable generosity and support from the community for the Visiting Nurse Association’s (VNA) home care, hospice, long-term care, and Meals on Wheels programs.

2010 isn’t the end of the need for VNA care, but a continuation of a mission that began 75 years ago. VNA’s work today is just as important as it was in 1934, and so is community support.

The need still exists in the community to use VNA home care and hospice, provide volunteer assistance for Meals on Wheels, and contribute generously to

enable VNA to provide care for those who lack financial resources.

The Visiting Nurse Association’s annual fundraising event, the Wheels for Meals and More gala, will get a quick start in 2010 at a spectacular location – February 28 in the Dee and Charles Wyly Theater at the AT&T Center for the Performing Arts in Dallas. Nita and Cullum Clark, are co-chairing of the gala, with Bess and Ted Enloe serving as honorary chairs.

The Wheels for Meals and More gala will carry the theme of “A Classic Evening of Caring.” The fundraiser will benefit the VNA’s home care, hospice, and Meals on Wheels programs. It

promises to be a classic night to remember.

U n d e r w r i t i n g and ticket information for the Visiting Nurse Association’s Wheels for Meals and More gala can be obtained by calling or emailing Christina Moore at (214) 689-2211 or [email protected]. Additional information about the VNA can be found online at vnatexas.org and by calling (214) 689-0000.

FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS, SEASON’S BEST FROM CADILLAC.

It is said that he was terrible with money and could be difficult to get along with. His reported ten-dency toward vulgarity and profanity has led some contemporary scholars to suggest that he suffered from Tourette’s syndrome. Unrelenting in his standard of artistry, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart would die penni-less at the age of thirty-five. Despite all of this, his mu-sic is an emblem of universal appeal and supernatural perfection.

His awe-inspiring output amounts to 170 CDs in a recently published complete collection of his works. Luckily, his music is such that the uninitiated can un-derstand and enjoy virtually all of it without effort.

In memory of Mozart’s 253rd birth anniversary on Jan. 27, we declare January to be “Mozart Month” on WRR. Listen throughout the month for some of his greatest works, such as the “Jupiter” Symphony, the Clarinet Concerto, Eine Kleine Nachtmusik and the Requiem.

WRR 101.1 is proud to welcome veteran radio broadcaster Barry Samsula to its already fine stable of tal-ent. Samsula joins the station as a weekend host and full-time announcer.

“For years now, Barry has been familiar to WRR lis-teners as the voice of Steinway Hall,” said WRR 101.1 Pro-gram Director Kurt Rongey. “Some months ago, he began filling in for other announcers on the station. Listeners were immediately enthusiastic in their praise for Barry’s comfort-

able, easy-going on-air style.”Samsula’s knowledge of the music, his ability to convey a sense of confidence

about what he’s playing and a general comfort that he provides to listeners are just a few of the things that Barry brings to the station.

Samsula comes to Classical 101.1 from a career in education and academia. “I’ve traveled an interesting path to arrive at this point in my life,” said Samsula. “But music---and especially the kind we provide listeners here at Classical 101.1---is some-thing that just touches the soul.”

In this issue of Overture, you’ll see a listing of the New York Metropolitan Op-era’s 2009-2010 broadcast season. This promises to be a landmark series. One of the most anxiously awaited productions takes place in the early part of January, Der Rosenkavalier. Strauss’ funny, colorful and slightly racy opera about love among the aristocrats is always appealing. But having the superstar duo of Renee Fleming and Susan Graham in lead roles for this production has earned it glowing reviews and made it a major topic of discussion for music lovers worldwide. Listen for an event that everyone is talking about, Der Rosen-kavalier, airing live on WRR January 9 at noon.

Strauss’ Der Rosenkavalier will air live on WRR 101.1 Saturday Jan. 9 at noon.

The Cultured Cup offers one of the largest and fin-est selections of tea, coffee, chocolate, and gifts in the country. They have part-nered with Nib Chocolates to support the North Texas Food Bank (NTFB) by offer-ing special gifts this holiday season. The gourmet NTFB

tea, coffee, and chocolates not only make great gifts, but are also something you can feel good about giving. A portion of sales will benefit the North Texas Food Bank: each bag of coffee purchased provides sixteen meals for those in need and each bag of tea pro-vides twenty meals to those in need.

With the holidays fast approaching, so grows the frustration when looking for that perfect gift.

Maybe you were lucky enough to snag the zhu zhu hampster for your inner child. But when you start to hunt for the “cool” gift, the one that makes you the hip aunt, brother, wife or parent... well, Wal-Mart and Best Buy may not be the right place for you.

WRR contacted Santa for his suggestions on where to find that per-fect gift for the discerning buyer and he knew just where to go! “Ahh HA HA HAAA!!! Just pay attention to where you already are... Visit the art centers and you should have all your gift needs covered from the little ones on up” said Santa Claus.

So that’s just what we did. This is a sample of the great gift ideas WRR has found. More are available at wrr101.com along with links to pur-chase online.

Holiday Buyer’s Guide

Give the gift of unique eye-wear this holiday season. For the person who has everything, Occhiali Mod-ern Optics is your stop for custom “Bespoke” glasses by Tom Davies made spe-cially to fit the wearer’s

features. Or go green with gifts from Uga and LINKSKIN eyewear. The Uga line has wooden temples and is a perfect chic look for the en-vironmentally conscious shopper. LINKSKIN glasses use recycled materials in their high-quality lenses, as well as in the temples and face.
