Since last Wednesday's start of the Cleveland International Piano Competition, which WCLV broadcasts "wall to wall," the on-air staff has been seeing itself coming and going.
WCLV's Bill O'Connell has been hosting the afternoon sessions, with Mark Satola hosting evenings. Back at the "Radioquarium," Nancy Sinning, whom you hear Sundays, has been your host for the first two hours of WCLV Midday from 10 to noon. Mark hosts from noon to 4, including board-opping the afternoon sessions. Rob Grier board ops the evening sessions. Your morning announcer hosted morning and afternoon drive through yesterday.
Now that the first cut has been made, from 26 pianists to 8 semi-finalists, things will settle down. In the semi-finals, only two pianists perform each session. Bill will have time to drive from the Cleveland Play House to the Radioquarium in time to begin Drive Time at 4. Mark will again host tonight beginning at 7.
The semi-finals take place today and tomorrow. The performers have Thursday off. The finals, with the Cleveland Orchestra, are Friday and Saturday nights, with the winners' recital Sunday. Hear it all on WCLV 104.9 & wclv.com.
