This Friday, Vivace begins with a delightful piano
quartet by Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia and a symphony by
Antonio Rosetti.
At 7:30 am, we'll do our part to mark
the 25th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, which occurs
next Sunday, including an excerpt from a rare recording of cellist Mstislav Rostropovich playing at the Berlin Wall
as it was being hacked down. (Incidentally, do join my colleague, John Delehanty who will also mark the occasion on Sunday morning 6-9 am)
Just after 8 am, we have another treat for
you: a special feature on the great opera singer, Dame Joan
Sutherland on the 88th anniversary of her birth.
Of course, we'll hear Dame Joan singing for us, and my colleague, Tim Snider, host of the Sunday Opera Matinee, will also offer some insights into her magic.
As ever, I hope you'll join me for an extra-special edition of Vivace, this Friday, 6-9 am, here on WTJU-Charlottesville.
