Dr. Paul presents Peter and the Wolf: A woodwind classic

Tue, 02/28/2012 - 1:00pm | Dr. Paul

yolo archiveToday's show features the voices of the woodwind section of the orchestra: the oboe, clarinet, bassoon, flute, and piccolo. Scored mainly for woodwinds, Peter and the Wolf features various instruments as characters in the musical suite by Prokofiev. Listen to the oboe as a duck, the clarinet as a cat, the flute as a bird, the bassoon as Peter's grandfather. Of course, the voice of Peter is the string section, and the wolf is played by a french horn. Woodwinds are the stars today. Listen to a Brandenburg Concerto by Bach, von Weber's concertino for clarinet, a piano quintet for winds by Beethoven, a Vivaldi piccolo concerto, and a Mozart flute quartet. The show's curtain rises on Rossini's overture for the opera Tancredi, and a beautiful aria is featured from the same opera.

Meet the man who will make Davis even more bike friendly

Mon, 02/27/2012 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

yolo archiveToday’s guest is Dave Kemp, Davis’ new bicycle and pedestrian coordinator. He moved to Davis in February from Fort Collins, a Colorado college town where he earned a degree in recreation and tourism. He was bike coordinator there too. So what can “the bicycle capital of the United States” do for bicycling that it hasn’t done already? A lot, Kemp says, and in this edition of “Davisville” he discusses some of those ideas. One possibility is bike boxes—specially marked green zones at the front of a traffic lane to make bikes more visible at certain intersections. He also talks about how he works; his views on the Fifth Street “road diet,” which he says has worked elsewhere; the pedestrian side of his job; and different approaches to bicycle planning taken by vehicularists and facilitators.
