Compact Discoveries Program 2 Fred Flaxman attempts to turn dishwashing from a chore into, well, almost a pleasure, with his selection of appropriate music which can be enjoyed to the accompaniment of the rattle of pots and pans. The program includes Handel's Water Music, "Mack the Knife" from Kurt Weil's The Threepenny Opera, Victor Herbert's Pan Americana, and other tunes which relate by a very far stretch of the imagination to that necessary daily task. This is definitely a light approach to serious music!

Review of Discs for DishwashingOnce again, Fred Flaxman finds a way to present engaging music, outstanding performances, and deft tongue-in-cheek commentary for an hour well-worth the listening. As always, he is a welcome visitor for both his own comments and the musical presents he brings. |

Review of Discs for Dishwashing
The title says it all. A very good balance of interesting (often dubbed 'serious') music taken 'un-seriously'.
The perfect tunes to make your mind wander around. And the perfect commentary and anecdotes to lift you up with it. All in all a bliss of sheer musical discovery...
