This year marks the 65th anniversary of the liberation of the Terezín
concentration camp. VPR and VPR Classical commemorate the event in music, and stories.
Whether or not March 1st is the actual birth date of Frederic Chopin is a point of some contest, but his birth year, 1810, is indisputed. Join VPR Classical for an entire day devoted to his music.
Walter Parker and Joe Goetz have a special morning of music planned, including the premiere of many new recordings from the VPR music library. Then at Noon, it’s an encore of the exciting annual "American Musical Sampler" program on Saturday Afternoon at the Opera with Peter Fox Smith!
This Saturday will be filled with the sounds of dance music, new additions to our music library, and an afternoon of opera favorites and new discoveries. Join Walter Parker, Joe Goetz, Peter Fox Smith and Cheryl Willoughby for a special day of music!
Over the past few months, I’ve been featuring new recordings and new additions to the VPR Classical music library on Friday afternoons. This morning we’ll listen to some of the best of those recordings, and maybe even throw in a few brand new ones.
September 23 marks the 100th birthday of Blanche Honegger Moyse, one of the founders of the Marlboro Music Festival, and founder of the Brattleboro Music Center. VPR Classical
celebrates her incalculable musical legacy with special programming
throughout the day.
Taking a look at new additions to the VPR Classical Library…all thanks to your support! Old recordings that we didn’t have, and new recordings hot off the press…you’ll hear it all this morning.
