Edmund Stone's "The Score"

We are among the few, the re-fined, the cultured and the cool (if those can even go together in one sentence).

Why, you may ask? Because we have access to The Score with Edmund Stone, a musical show - no, a weekly celebration of symphonic music in film. That may not sound exciting or exclusive, but listen carefully: The Score is only available on nine stations nationwide (as of this writing), and was only on four when we started listening a few months ago. So there: see how few we are that taste the delights of The Score? Rarefied atmosphere we're in! (They have a map of all their stations too.)

My family and I ran across this weekly celebration quite by accident a short time ago and enjoyed it immensely. It was nicely presented in the mellifluous tones of Mr. Stone's voice. The topic was the music of Star Trek in the movies. What a great introduction to our sons to that whole range of music.

The Score with Edmund Stone has a facebook page too, which gives helpful info about recent and coming shows, along with enthusements from various fan types. Their recently-added sponsor, Bob's Red Mill, is a family favorite also. Go BRM. Go The Score!

We don't watch television, and see movies only rarely (mainly because there's so much other living to do, not to mention how much those things can suck you in if you let them, thus cutting down on the aforementioned "other living to do");- but we do listen to a great deal of music, classical and otherwise. The Score is an excellent way to expose our family to culture without the down side.

Thank you Mr. Stone, and thank you The Score!
