The confluence of music and...astrology? OK, you tell yourself. Don't rush to judgment. You listen as the host introduces her guest, the "pianist and astrologer."

The guy is highly engaging, and he talks mostly about Christmas carols and the history thereof while sitting at the piano and playing illustrations of his points. He pops around from Mahler to Mel Torme to Schubert to the Beatles. Thankfully, perhaps, astrology comes up only a couple of times. "Some people believe [Jesus] was a Pisces." I, for one, did not know this.

Host Dheera Sujan does a fine job. There's plenty of interesting stuff in here for people who like smart talk about music. I'm still not sure what astrology is doing in this radio show, but hey. 'Tis not the season to get snarky. It's a good show for Christmas, especially for music stations. Astrology aside, I would call this program "St. Paul Sunday-esque." And that's a compliment.
