FeAtuReD tHiS montH

A RepoRteR once asked Ringo Starr

the secret of his masterful drumming. “My

heartbeat keeps the tempo,” he replied.

“I have a great time when I’m performing.

It’s the rhythm of my heart and soul.”

Starr demonstrates plenty of heart

and soul in the season premiere of the

contemporary music series Live From

the Artists Den (Fri 9th, 9:30 p.m. on

WNET; Sat 10th, 10 p.m. on WLIW21).

Folk-funk star Ben Harper and Relentless7

join the former Beatle for this intimate

concert at The Metropolitan Museum of

Art with special guest Joan Osborne.

The series will also feature Tori Amos

(Fri 16th, 9:30 p.m. on WNET; Sat 17th,

10 p.m. on WLIW21) and Corinne Bailey

Rae (Fri 30th, 9:30 p.m. on WNET;

Sat 31st, 10 p.m. on WLIW21).

American Masters gets up close and

personal with country legend Merle

Haggard in Learning to Live With Myself

(Wed 21st, 9 p.m.), while President

Obama welcomes Paul McCartney

to In Performance at The White House

(Wed 28th, 8 p.m.). Norah Jones performs

her greatest hits on Soundstage (Fri 2nd,

9:30 p.m.), and Jimmy Smits hosts

A Capitol Fourth (Sun 4th, 8 p.m.).

And opera fans won’t want to miss

Great Performances at The Met’s

presentation of Hamlet (Thu 15th,

9 p.m.), starring Simon Keenlyside

and Marlis Petersen.

So sit back and enjoy these lively

music programs —all made possible by

your support!

Our Thanks

We are pleased to announce that James S. Tisch,

critical funding for programming. The gift is the largest

we have ever received.

“This is an amazing act of generosity from a couple who

have been unfailingly generous throughout the years,”

said Neal Shapiro, President and CEO of WNET.ORG. “But

it’s much more than that. It’s a vote of confidence in our

vision for the future of public media in this community.”
