Other Minds has launched a completely amazing online archive called RadioOM. You have to create an account to use it, but there's no charge. The vast array of offerings available — performances, interviews, discussions, and so on — will render any aficionado of far-out late-twentieth-century American music giddy with delight. I just listened to Steve Reich's 1970 concert at the UC Berkeley Museum, including My Name Is and Phase Patterns. On a semi-related note, WNYC kicks off an American music festival on May 26, running programs both on its regular Evening Music program and on the twenty-four internet stream.
