Sparks: Ron and Russell Mael

Friday August 14 at 19:03 Swedish time we'll sit down in front of the old radio (or computer) to listen to the world premiere of The Seduction of Ingmar Bergman featuring Sparks.

[Here's a time zone converter so you can check what time it's on according to your clock:

New York = 1:03PM, Tokyo = 02:03 Saturday morning and so on]

We already wrote about it here, so this is just a reminder. And if you can't catch the premiere it will air on two more occasions (August 16 at 22:03 and August 23 at 00:15 Swedish time) as well as be available online for 30 days. We'll update this post with links later, but here are a couple to start:

The Swedish Radio page about the play/radio musical is here (in Swedish)
- includes a couple of short clips of the music as well as an interview in English with Russell Mael -

A Swedish version of the musical is released on CD today and limited to 1000 copies. An English version will follow later this autumn.

Cover of the Swedish CD version

UPDATE: Here's the link if you want to listen on demand. It will open in a separate window and should be live for 30 days and work until September 13, 2009.
