Welcome to the audio home page for CONFERENCE of the BIRDS, a weekly radio program/podcast featuring a heterogeneous, intra-continental mix of music, poetry, speech, and song. Released from the wan perniciousness of the ’global village’, the birds are assembled in concert/consort here for a free recital of juxtaposed, contrastive, intermingled musics, and for phases, forms, and statements of musical redress, recalcitrance, recumbence, renewal, revolt, repair, revolution...and more. Listen weekly for a new ensemble of classical, folk, ritual, spiritual, avant-garde, experimental, religious, popular, poetic, political, party-able, danceable sounds and songs, in various genres, forms, formats, and styles, ranging from free-jazz, flamenco, and Javanese gamelan to field recordings, folk songs, and Indian film music, to salsa, samba, disco, Raï, Algerian cha’abi and be-bop. Conference Of the Birds (COB) airs LIVE, Friday evenings, 9:00 - 12:00 midnight, Eastern USA time, on WRFI and WINO (Ithaca/Odessa), community radio for Central New York and the Finger Lakes. Broadcasting to the world on the net via www.wrfi.org and Radio Garden: https://radio.garden/listen/wrfi-ithaca-community-radio/0N0fROGD#google_vignette. Episodes are available 24/7 online. Always free, commercial free, and free of commercial, corporate, or capitalist intent.

PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING TO COB THIS HOLIDAY SEASON. Do so for yourself, or do so in someone else's name. Our modest but nevertheless burdensome overhead bills come due annually in December, and financial assistance ensures the COB's continued existence in mp3 format. We receive absolutely NO PROFIT or SPONSORSHIP of any kind, and rely entirely on host Stephen Cope's time and effort, as well as the kind material contributions of record labels and Cope's often financially irresponsible record shopping habits, to survive. TO HELP TO DEFRAY OVERHEAD COSTS, please locate the PayPal button at our blog/playlist site http://confbirds.blogspot.com/ It is painless and even small donations go a long way.
Thanks in advance for listening and contributing!
