This two hour weekly program features classical music in concert from studios and sites across the nation and around the world, as well as classical music news, interviews and features.
We meet a teenage pianist with an affinity for horror movie scores, a percussionist who adapts Debussy for marimba, a talented violinist who likes to read books upside down, and an outstanding trio from Utah play Café Music. They all answer the question - why classical music?
Karina Canellakis conducts the NDR Elbphilharmonie in Britten's Sinfonia da Requiem and Beethoven's Symphony No. 7. Kian Soltani plays the Shostakovich Cello Concerto No. 1.
