Captain Phil's Planet playlist for 10/19/2023
By captphil on Thu, 10/19/2023 - 7:00pm
Thursday the WUSB FUll Power signal will bring you the Halloween edition of Captain Phils Planet featuring Ross Amico! The Captain and Ross will examine some Classic Halloween music including Renaissance, Bartok and a secret spooky classic list curated by Ross Amico. Prepare to scare as we go over some terrific seasonal music as the Pumpkin Spice flows and the children roam in search of sucrose! Ross Amico is the host of Picture Perfect which airs Fridays at 8:00 PM and The Lost Chord which airs Saturdays at 7:00 PM EDT. Ross Amico has been involved in radio broadcasting since 1986. He spent nearly ten years in community radio, after phoning in to a request show and being told he knew more about classical music than the program director. During that time, his shows originated from WMUH Allentown (the radio station of Muhlenberg College) and nearby WXLV Schnecksville (at Lehigh-Carbon Community College). Currently, Ross can be heard on KWAX (https://kwax.uoregon.edu/) on Saturdays at 7:00 pm for The Lost Chord and Fridays at 8:00 pm for Picture Perfect. What he finds most enjoyable about his work in radio is putting together interesting programs and sharing music perhaps unfamiliar to his audiences. It is his philosophy that a skillful juxtaposition of the familiar and the new can set off both to advantage. His pre-produced shows, Picture Perfect and The Lost Chord, allow him to explore the world of film music and seldom-heard composers and recordings. His music articles, which appear every Friday in the Times of Trenton, celebrate the local and regional arts scene. Always passionate about classical music, Ross began record collecting at the age of 10. He has also had a lifelong interest in classic film. He credits his fascination with film with having led him to the symphony orchestra. Follow his activities and enthusiasm on his Facebook page, Classic Ross Amico.
