Evening Music

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Winter Evening, Wondrous Evening, Evening Prayer — you name it, we've got it. We'll offer up some real "Evening Music" to set the mood tonight, including Franz Joseph Haydn's Symphony No. 8, "Le Soir" ("The Evening" — as if you didn't know...)

John Rutter's "Gloria" is heard in the later hours, as well as Corelli's "Christmas Concerto." Native New Orleansian (and Ragtime pioneer) Louis Moreau Gottshchalk gave his works catchy titles like "Five Pieces for Four Hands"; we'll hear that one from Cary Lewis and Brady Millican. Also, the Philharmonia Virtuosi perform Virgil Thomson's Coplandesque suite from his documentary score for "The Plough That Broke The Plains."
