A Year Later, Alstead is Rebuilding

By David Shurtleff on Tuesday, October 10, 2006.

For the past year, the Town of Alstead has been rebuilding.

On October 9th, 2005, after an historic rainfall, a wall of water broke through a culvert and devastated the small town.

The flood washed away homes, roads and bridges.

NHPR Correspondent Dave Shurtleff visited the town recently to see what progress has been made to rebuild.

He filed this report.

Turtle Island Quartet

By Liz Bulkley on Tuesday, October 10, 2006.

Take the intimate sound of a string quartet and add some funk. San Francisco-based Turtle Island Quartet plays John Coltrane, they do be-bop and hip hop and Brubeck, and they won a Grammy in the Classical Crossover category for their recent CD "4+4." The group's playing a tribute concert to John Coltrane at Keene State College on Wednesday night and will perform some of the program in our studios tonight.
