Going On Record
We march through a sonically stimulating sequence of recently issued compact discs on our next Pipedreams program. You'll savor some English instruments from the 18th century, French music from the 17th century, an Austrian antique from the 16th century and a clangorous composition from the 15th century talk about time travel.
This week, you'll also hear first recordings of new music commissioned by a forward-thinking church in Saint Paul, taste the glories of one of America's grandest concert instruments at Yale's Woolsey Hall, and relive the exciting times of a popular and well-aid virtuoso. Calvert Johnson, Thomas Murray, John Butt, Roger Fisher and others demonstrate the goods. We're Going On Record with new CDs in review this week on Pipedreams.
