... In our 10th episode we meet The Pythia, perhaps Greece's most astonishing figure. She served as Apollo's voice of prophesy. And unsurprisingly, she was never wrong.You may have heard her referred to as the Delphic Oracle, because she lived in Delphi, which the Greeks considered the center of the worldThe Pythia was considered infallible, and indeed, for a period exceeding 1,000 years, she is never recorded as making a wrong prediction. Generals, politicians, tyrants and common men all relied on her counsel.Narrated by mythologist and best-selling author, Patrick Garner, Garner's Greek Mythology is unlike any other Greek history series. Here these divine beings are viewed as if they were anything but mythical...If you love these podcasts, you'll also enjoy new stories about the gods in Garner's novel Homo Divinitas, now available as an audio book on Amazon.com and Audible.com.(Musical score includes selections from Fesliyan Studios and Free Sounds Library.

... In our best installment yet (and our 9th episode) , we meet Aphrodite. You might think of her as Venus, but the Greeks knew her as Aphrodite, the eternal Goddess of Love.Her origins are amazing, and her decision to devote herself to the arts of love are an amazing decision, as you will see. What happened to this seductress? Reassuringly, nothing. Of all the gods and goddesses, Aphrodite remains the most engaged in the modern world.Narrated by mythologist and best-selling author, Patrick Garner, Garner's Greek Mythology is unlike any other Greek history series.

INTRO: THE INHERENT HEALTH RISKS OF PLAYING GUITAR A couple common themes have emerged with the four guitarists we’ve covered so far. First of all: being a world-renowned guitarist is, without question, bad for your health. Another lesson we can take away from Joe, Paco, and Frank is that good music rarely occurs in a vacuum. What is often considered innovation is usually an artful synthesis of musical influences. Michael Hedges’ 1981 Windham Hill release Breakfast in the Field was a landmark guitar recording full of percussive effects, open tunings, and right hand legato techniques. There’s a third thread that ties all these artists together, and it’s probably my favorite feature of their work. That is that the guitar was a vehicle that served their compositional ideas rather than the other way around. Recordings: Matthew Cochran, “Cicadas at the Equinox” from Vapor Trail from a Paper Plane Michael Hedges, “Layover” from Breakfast In The Field Commercial Break: Season Sponsor, Strings By Mail Music Bed: Steve Reich, “Fast” from Electric Counterpoint, Pat Metheny, guitarist PART TWO: SOME ESSENTIAL HEDGES GUITAR TECHNIQUES (AND WHY HE EMPLOYED THEM) This section of the conversation gets a bit technical. Non-guitarists, bear with me for a few minutes, or feel free to skip ahead to Part Three, where I discuss Hedges early musical influences. For my money, it doesn’t get any more quintessentially Hedges than the title track from Aerial Boundaries. If you’re interested in replicating Hedges’ legato effects, or maybe you got lost in the explanation, fear not! Here’s a talented guy named Mark Whidden who’s made a video of himself playing “Aerial Boundaries” with both hands prominently displayed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyLXPKgfjVo Oh, and I should mention that “Aerial Boundaries”, like all Hedges compositions, uses a Scordatura, or a non-standard tuning. This particular one is, from low to high, C2, C3, D3, G3, A3, D4. If you’d like to know more about Hedges’ tunings, I’d recommend visiting www.stropes.com Michael Hedges is often referred to as a “fingerstyle” guitarist, but he’s also great with a pick. We listen to two tracks that feature Hedges with a pick. Recordings Michael Hedges, “Aerial Boundaries” from Aerial Boundaries Michael Hedges, “Fusion of Five Elements” from Scorched Michael Hedges, “Ritual Dance” from Taproot PART THREE: HEDGES BIO AND EARLY MUSICAL INFLUENCES We explore Hedges’ early life in Enid, OK, his studies at Peabody, and his first records with Windham Hill. Recordings: Arnold Schoenberg, “The Moonfleck” from Pierrot Lunaire, Christine Schäfer, sop., Pierre Boulez, cond. Steve Reich and Musicians, “Pulse” from Music for 18 Musicians Music bed: Michael Hedges, “Baal T ‘Shuvah” from Beyond Boundaries Michael Hedges, “Eleven Small Roaches” from Breakfast in the Field Commercial Break: Peghead Nation Music Bed: Punch Brothers, “Flippen” from Who’s Feeling Young Now? PART FOUR: THE JONI EFFECT Michael Hedges often cited Joni Mitchell as major influence. He understood the genius of Joni’s songwriting of course, but he also appreciated her unique, inventive, and criminally underrated approach to the guitar. Recordings: Joni Mitchell, “Otis and Marlena” from Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter Michael Hedges, “Woman of the World” from Watching My Life Go By Joni Mitchell, “God Must Be A Boogie Man” from Mingus Michael Hedges, “After the Gold Rush” (Neil Young cover) from Aerial Boundaries PART FIVE: THE HEDGES’ LEGACY Some closing thoughts about originality and Hedges’ lasting legacy Recording: Michael Hedges, “Chava’s Song” from Taproot
