Rosemary wanted you to know more about the Bach to Baghdad concert this Sunday at the Arts Trust Building in Northhampton, MA. Tickets are $15 and the concert will feature Peter Blancehtte, a musician and composer who performs Bach and lots of other kinds of music on an archguitar. Archguitar -- That's an 11-string instrument he invented.

In a radio career that has spanned nearly 35 years, Ray Graf has done it all. At one time or another he worked as an overnight board operator, a commercial copywriter, a reporter and a voiceover announcer. For several years - a lifetime ago - he was a morning drive disc jockey. Graf has been a member of the WAMC News team for 16 years. These days, he finds himself as The Roundtable's news anchor, panelist- and occasional guest host for Joe Donahue. "Radio news is not always easy," said Graf of his most recent radio vocation, "but it's not nearly as difficult as spinning a Michael Bolton record at 5:45 in the morning and pretending you're happy about it."
