One of The Piano Bench's most frequent guests, north Idaho pianist and teacher Melody Puller, visits the KPBX studio to talk with Jim Tevenan about a remarkable early 20th century musician, pianist Marcelle Meyer. Traveling in the intensely vital intellectual and artistic waters of 1920s Paris, Marcelle was a close collaborator with many of the most influential musicians of her time, including the most remarkable Le six. Melody has chosen a representative sample of the vast Marcelle Meyer discography, with composers ranging from Claude Debussy to Darius Milhaud to François Couperin to J. S. Bach.
