Cuban composer and pianist Omar Sosa is one of the most versatile jazz artists on the scene today. He fuses a wide range of jazz, world music, and electronic elements with his native Afro-Cuban roots to create a fresh and original urban sound – all with a Latin jazz heart. Omar Sosa is coming to Troy with his group SUBA on April 1. The show is sold out, but you can watch and listen live through The Sanctuary for Independent Media's webcast, and a live broadcast on WOOC and WGXC. Omar Sosa and SUBA perform at The Sanctuary for Independent Media at 7 p.m. on April 1. In-person tickets to the show are sold out, but you can enjoy the live video stream at www.mediasanctuary.org or listen to the broadcast on WOOC 105.3 FM Troy and WOOS 98.9 FM in Schenectady and WGXC 90.7-FM in Acra.
The "WGXC Morning Show" is a radio magazine show featuring local news, interviews with community leaders and personalities, reports on cultural issues, a rundown of public meetings and local and regional events, with weather updates, and more about and for the community, made mostly through volunteers in the community through WGXC. The Catskill Makers Syndicate produce the "Better Weather" for the show. Rob Gelles produces the Columbia County history segment "Rob Around The County" and "This Month in History" for the show. And Jack Sencabaugh contributes the "Backtracks in Time" segment about local history. Some reports come from our partner station, WOOC-LP in Troy, out of The Sanctuary for Independent Media. Tom Roe also cuts up local and national news with songs and sounds for the show. At 9 a.m. "The WGXC Daily," with local headlines, weather, and previews of community events, airs. Also tune in for national headlines from the Public News Service on WGXC. Sometimes national, state, or local press conferences, meetings, or events are also broadcast live here.
