Latest Inside Music Episode Available

New episode of "Inside Music" on wwfm.org on Saturday 9/14/2024 at 7:30pm. This episode is entitled "Tension and Release".

Tension & Release

From the unseen pulsation of alternating electrical current to the readily identifiable sensation we feel when emotional tension increases and then dissipates … Tension and Release is a common phenomenon. Imagine the feeling we have on the first incline of a roller coaster contrasted with that of accelerating down the first hill. Or how about slowly stretching a rubber band and then letting it retract? Conjure up the feeling we experience as we see a disturbing image on television as opposed to our state when we change the channel. Our lives are filled with visceral tension and release events of differing lengths and intensity levels. Inside Music host George Marriner Maull explores how Beethoven and other composers effectively create this phenomenon in wordless, abstract musical sounds.

Inside Music is made possible in part by Robert Scott, managing partner at Main Street Wealth Management in Bedminster, New Jersey.  Their team of certified and dedicated financial advisors are passionate about improving their clients’ lives.
