50 Shades of Alma

This week on WCLV, I'm spoofing the best-selling erotic novel "50 Shades of Grey," by adding the musical tale of Alma Mahler, a woman whose juicy romantic exploits reportedly included much of musical Vienna, before and after her marriage to Gustav Mahler. She subsequently married the architect Walter Gropius and the author Franz Werfel, as deliciously set out in Tom Lehrer's satirical song, "Alma," which you heard last Friday on 104.9.

You can hear "50 Shades of Alma" at 8:20 this week on WCLV. You can read the episodes on this blog begining Wednesday, August 1st.
