A music mix and ramblings to get Tuesday underway.

You Never Can Tell - with Christina the Astonishing follows no particular genre because there's just too much good stuff out there, ready to be plucked from all branches of the music tree. So tune in from 9am for two hours of rock, folk, bluegrass, indie, world music, big band sounds, crooners, and iconic names from across the decades. Plenty of Australian fayre, lots of local performers, great new music, and those long-forgotten tracks to take you back in time. And interviews too, with really interesting local people.

Plato told us “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination
 and life to everything.” Napolean Bonaparte said “Music is what tells us that the human race is greater than we realise" Frank Zappa simply said “Music Is The Best” Have you ever wondered exactly what Music is? Where does it come from, who defines it and what does it mean to us? "The Big Note" goes beyond the surface of popular hits or classical standards, embracing a spirit of curiosity and exploration. We will celebrate the global diversity of music and the rich tapestry of sounds from different cultures and traditions. From traditional folk tunes to world fusion experiments, we'll bring you on a sonic adventure that transcends boundaries and connects us through the universal language of music. Your input, requests, and questions are welcomed - you can reach me at bignoteradio@gmail.com or on the socials. Tune in, turn up the volume, and let the symphony of "The Big Note" fill your ears, heart, and soul.
