FRIENDSHIP FORCE MAY 12 LUNCHEON Saturday, May 12, 11:30 am, Hotel Eleganté AN IN DEPTH LOOK AT THE UNIQUE MUSIC OF NEW MEXICO Our May meeting will feature guest speaker Heidi Brown from radio station KANW, 89.1 FM, whose topic will be the Music of New Mexico, certainly one of the most unique cultural aspects of our great state. Heidi is Director of Development and Marketing for KANW and has worked in various capacities in the broadcast industry in New Mexico. She will share a collection of different music styles representing New Mexico and explain their history and special qualities. There will be some “give-aways” and perhaps a chance for those who choose to dance to the tunes of some of our local musical artists. KANW began in 1949 as a station serving the Albuquerque Public Schools and added programming about the special music of New Mexico in 1973, programming which continues today. In 1999, the station became associated with National Public Radio. Be sure to join us to enhance your knowledge of the Musicology of New Mexico.
