A Change in ManagementJohn Bailey, WFIU’s program director for the past three years, stepped into his new role as station operations director on April 1, trading positions with Will Murphy, who had been at the helm since 2012.

In a note to staff, Will wrote, “We’re implementing the change at my request, and I feel the switch will be good for John, for me, and for the station. I couldn’t be happier that someone for whom I have so much respect will be moving into the position.”

Will’s new responsibilities include overseeing spoken-word programming such as Arts Desk coverage and Profiles, a shift that brings him closer to his WFIU roots as news director from 1999 to 2007. Like Will, John is in his third decade in public radio, and has assumed roles ranging from classical host to director of membership and marketing.

NOTUS Live Concert Tuesday, May 10, 9 p.m.

The NOTUS Contemporay Vocal Ensemble is made up of 26 of the finest singers from the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. Noted for adventurous and innovative programming, programming, NOTUS is dedicated to performing the works of living composers. In this program, we hear highlights from two of the group’s performances during the 2015-2016 academic year, featuring world premieres by IU faculty and student composers, and Arvo Pärt’s magnificent Te Deum. NOTUS conductor Dominick DiOrio and WFIU music director Joe Goetz host.

Weekend Staples Will StayThis spring, about 450 listeners took WFIU's online survey to tell us what the future of public radio staples such as A Prairie Home Companion and Car Talk should be.

Garrison Keillor is retiring soon, and more than half the respondents said we should give Keillor’s successor, Chris Thile, a chance. We’re planning to air the 13 new shows he’ll host in the year to come, along with 26 archival Keillor programs. We’ll also use the summer rerun season to let you sample new public radio shows and give us your opinions.

You also asked that we continue Car Talk on Saturday mornings at 10. For this coming year we will do just that.

Thank you for speaking up and helping us to serve you better!

Jazz Notesby David Brent Johnson, WFIU Jazz Director

We hope that you’re enjoying the expanded two-hour Just You and Me that now airs every weekday afternoon from 3 to 5 p.m. on WFIU. On Mondays host David Brent Johnson surveys new and recent releases from the world of jazz, while Tuesdays are devoted to classic jazz from artists such as Duke Ellington, John Coltrane, and Bill Evans.

Wednesdays you can call in or email a jazz request and also listen to in-concert performances of past and present artists. Thursday shows put the spotlight on the modern Indiana jazz scene as well as its rich history, and on Fridays Brother William Morris takes over for the always-simmering Soul Kitchen edition of the program.

On Afterglow this month, host Mark Chilla explores record label EmArcy’s mid-1950s “In the Land of Hi-Fi” series with albums by singers Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughan, and Patti Page; highlights three vocalists who reinvented themselves in the dawn of the LP era; and delves into the artistic partnership of Frank Sinatra and songwriter Jimmy van Heusen. Afterglow airs each Friday at 8 p.m., and shows are archived for online listening afterward at indianapublicmedia.org/afterglow.

Night Lights follows at 9, with shows this month focusing on trombonist Melba Liston, jazz eulogies for departed musicians, and the final years of trumpeter Miles Davis’ career.

After Night Lights stick around for the laidback late-night jazz of The Best of Bob Parlocha, which airs Friday from ten p.m. till 2 a.m., and then again Saturday evening beginning at midnight.

May 1 – Civility in American Politics

Indiana’s presidential primary is only two days away, so it’s fitting that we bring you this special program that looks at the role of civility in U.S. politics. The broadcast features a panel discussion recorded in March at the University of Southern Indiana with former U.S. Senator Richard Lugar and former Congressman Lee Hamilton. USI President Linda Bennett moderated the discussion.

May 8 – Mother’s Day Special

Today is Mother’s Day, a time to honor that special woman in your life, and we’ll mark the occasion with this audio tribute to mothers everywhere.

May 15 – Cary Fowler

Agriculturalist Cary Fowler is the former executive director of the Global Crop Diversity Trust, which works to preserve crops to ensure diversity for worldwide food security. During his tenure, the Trust worked with gene banks in 71 countries to rescue 83,393 unique crop varieties from extinction. Fowler was influential in the creation of the Svalbard Global Seed Vault in the Arctic Circle, which houses samples of more than 783,000 distinct crop varieties. Trish Kerlé hosts.

May 22 – Jill Lepore

Jill Lepore is a staff writer at The New Yorker and professor of American history at Harvard University who writes about history, law, literature, and politics. Her essays have appeared in the New York Times and many other publications, examining such topics as child welfare, disruption, torture, polls, and the archiving of the Internet. Her books include The Mansion of Happiness: A History of Life and Death, The Story of America, and her most recent, The Secret History of Wonder Woman. David Brent Johnson hosts.

May 29 – Tony Buba/Joseph Bernard

Tony Buba has been producing documentary films since 1972. Many of his films concern issues in his hometown of Braddock, Pennsylvania. These include Voices from a Steeltown, a series of vignettes of signs of life in the dying mill town, and his first feature-length documentary, Lightning Over Braddock: A Rustbowl Fantasy, an “exploded documentary.” His 1994 fictional feature film, No Pets, explored the psychological realities of post-industrial working-class life. Josh Brewer hosts.

Joseph Bernard is a painter, filmmaker, and mixed-media artist. A former student of experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage, Bernard’s films are kaleidoscopic abstractions of light and texture. His collage paintings utilize acrylic paint and inks on wood panels, layered with found objects such as hair, seaweed, feathers, onion skin, and crushed cans. Bernard has taught fine arts at Detroit’s College for Creative Studies. Yaël Ksander hosts.

4 Wednesday 8:00 PM QUARTET FOR THE END OF

TIMEIn observance of Holocaust Remembrance Day, WFIU presents Olivier Messiaen’s legendary work composed under the direst of circumstances. Captured by the Germans and condemned to a prisoner of war camp, Messiaen composed his 20th century masterpiece with the help of other imprisoned musicians and with the protection of a sympathetic guard. On March 30 of this year, Jacobs School musicians James Campbell, Sibbi Bernhardsson, Futaba Niekawa, and Hyeok Kwon performed the work at Auer Hall.

9:00 PM MESSAGE IN A BOTTLEA portrait of the music and lives of composers Viktor Ullmann and Gideon Klein, who were imprisoned in Terezin, the “model ghetto” created by the Germans in World War II. Many of Europe’s greatest artists, musicians, and writers were held in the camp, and were expected to continue to create and perform there during the war. More than 70 years later, some of Ullmann and Klein’s music has been rediscovered in attics, under beds, and hidden in libraries around the world. Megan Williams produced this documentary for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

Our path weaves across the Americas, through Europe, and into Asia, Africa, Australia and India.


BlameWe’ve all felt it, that irresistible urge to point the finger. But new technologies are complicating age-old moral conundrums about accountability. This hour, we ask what blame does for us. Why do we need it, when isn’t it enough, and what happens when we try to push past it with forgiveness and mercy?

EmergenceWhat happens when there is no leader? Starlings, bees, and ants manage just fine. In fact, they form staggeringly complicated societies—all without a Toscanini to conduct them into harmony.

Plus, we’ll explore some music set to words by famous poets and hear from a recent recording by Capella de Minstrers.

10:00 PM FIESTA!New Music from the PastMusical memory is a strange thing. What is remembered and what is not often times is decided by the particular taste of one era or just by chance. Hidden treasures from the past are being discovered every day.


Jimmy Van Heusen and Frank SinatraIn the late 1930s before he was a star, Frank Sinatra befriended songwriter Jimmy Van Heusen in New York City. Over the next several decades, the career of the singer and the songwriter became linked. We’ll hear Sinatra performing many of Van Heusen’s most well-known tunes, such as “My Kind of Town,” “September of My Years,” and “Come Fly with Me.”

10:00 PM FOLKTALESFolktale of Secret GardensAccording to Oliver Wendell Holmes, “The Amen of nature is always a flower.” This week’s program is particularly joyful, as we travel the globe in search of Mother Nature’s finest. Armed with wise words, and beautifully blooming music, we’ll be making out-of-the-way stops across the Americas, Europe, China, Africa, and the South Pacific.


ElementsScientists took about 300 years to lay out the Periodic Table into neat rows and columns; in one hour, we’re going to mess it all up. We’ll enlist journalists, poets, musicians, and a physicist to help us tell stories of matter that matters. You’ll never look at the Periodic Table the same way again.

10:00 PM FIESTA!Exiles and ÉmigrésDisplacement due to political causes has been sadly common throughout history. By force or by choice composers (and other artists) have abandoned their homeland to become exiles or migrants in a different country. Elbio Barilari examines the cases of Manuel de Falla’s exile in Argentina, Paul Bowles’ lifelong affair with Spain and Latin America, and Conlon Nancarrow becoming an American-Mexican composer.

Beginning in our own United States, we’ll be touring Europe, South America, Asia, Africa, and beyond, with a special tribute to Decoration Day in Civil War times.


After LifeWhat happens at the moment when we slip from life to the other side? Is it a moment? If it is, when exactly does it happen? And what happens afterward? This hour, a show of questions that don’t have easy answers. So, in a slight departure from our regular format, we bring you eleven meditations on how, when, and even if we die.

Janis: Little Girl Blue – American Masters Tuesday, May 3, 8 p.m.

One of the most revered and influential rock ’n’ roll singers of all time, Janis Joplin thrilled audiences and blazed new creative trails before her death in 1970 at age 27. Oscar-nominated filmmaker Amy Berg examines Joplin’s story in depth, presenting an intimate portrait of a complicated and driven artist.

Janis: Little Girl Blue features never-before-seen archival performance footage and new interviews with musicians who were inspired by Janis: Alecia Moore (a.k.a. Pink), Juliette Lewis, Melissa Etheridge, and the film’s narrator, Chan Marshall, best known as indie rock star

Cat Power. In tribute, she performs “A Woman Left Lonely” from Joplin’s final studio album Pearl.

Original interviews—with Joplin’s siblings Laura and Michael; friends, lovers, and fellow musicians including Big Brother and the Holding Company

bandmates; Bob Weir (Grateful Dead), Country Joe McDonald (Country Joe and the Fish), Kris Kristofferson, Dick Cavett, and Clive Davis—give a complete sense of a woman haunted by lifelong insecurity and a need for acceptance despite her on-stage bravado and uninhibited, sexualized persona.

The film explores Joplin’s childhood, struggles with addiction, active role in the musical and cultural revolution of the 1960s, surprising rise to stardom, and untimely demise. Her own words tell much of her story through a series of letters she wrote to her parents, many of them made public for the first time.

Other previously-unseen material that Berg discovered during the seven years she spent making the film includes new audio and video of Joplin in the studio as well as rare footage from Joplin’s emotional return to her hometown, Port Arthur, Texas, for her tenth high school reunion.

Philanthropy Made EasyYour largest single financial asset may be the tax-deductible contributions to retirement plans you make during your working years.

But while retirement plans such as TIAA-CREF, traditional IRAs, or 401(k) plans are excellent vehicles to accruing wealth, they are not effective at transferring it to heirs.

If you pass on before you deplete your retirement plan savings, the taxation on them can be surprisingly high.

Those retirement dollars will be subject to taxation by the IRS, which could substantially reduce the remainder of your account resulting in a gift that is not as generous as you may have intended for your beneficiaries!

Charitable giving offers an alternative to having your retirement assets eaten up by taxes. Consider designating your retirement plan balance to worthwhile causes, such as a nonprofit you value, and redirecting assets with less tax liability to your family and friends.

Making a gift through your retirement plan is simple and does not require a lawyer. All you need do is contact the retirement plan administrator and request a beneficiary form.

There are a multitude of options. You could choose five different charities and designate 20% of your remaining retirement savings to each organization, escaping all taxes. Or you can have your spouse named as primary beneficiary with WFIU as the secondary beneficiary, or, you could designate 90% to your spouse and 10% of the remainder to WFIU.

Of course, consulting with your family or a lawyer is always wise, but the process is simple enough that no legal assistance is required.
