That's more like it….



The sun is down and the sky is colored an intense violet and every now and again you smell wood smoke in the chilled night air. This is autumn, a brief season to be savored in South Texas.

On the Piano this Sunday music that evokes that special and short time when it isn't too hot or cold - the skies are an intense blue and even some of our trees change their leaves to match our growing expectations of winter to come. On the program autumnal music of Debussy, Edward MacDowell, Edvard Grieg and even some evocative music of Alexander Scriabin, so bundle up and enjoy the season of autumn on the Piano this Sunday afternoon at 5 on KPAC & KTXI.

Transitioning back to long pants..

School is back in session - we notice that the shadows are longer during the day and the sun isn't as fierce as it once was, its light is less white and more yellow; easier on the eyes and skin. In San Antonio, where we are closer to the equator than Cairo, Egypt, we understand heat and drought and if there is one season we are not sad to see go it is Summer! Autumn to us is like a mirage that desert dwellers dream of; cooler with less thick air and even some of our South Texas trees respond to this change by having their leaves turning from green to gold to brown and dropping off.

Our high temperature might not be in the seventies yet but, you can celebrate Fall by listening to the Piano this Sunday afternoon at 5. Music inspired by South Texas' shortest season - Autumn.
