Melissa Johnson Bills I'm here in Chicago, and I love my own classical station (98.7 WFMT), but NOTHING tops MPR. You are the best!
Classical Minnesota Public Radio Tonight at 7 p.m., we bring you part 2 of a new Christmas special: the Minnesota Holiday Sampler. Hear festive music from homegrown talents including Bells of the Lakes, National Lutheran Choir and Kantorei.
Classical Minnesota Public Radio This morning on sister station MPR News, hear MacPhail Center for Music's David O'Fallon talk about the arts community and engaged audiences.
minnesota.publicradio.org
Arts organizations and arts education programs have been hit hard by the recession, but David O'Fallon says the arts community has a chance to emerge stronger if it learns to engage an audience that more than ever wants to be a part of the artistic process.
Kantorei We'll sing Mendelssohn, Reger and Fuchs on A Minnesota Holiday Sampler, 7 p.m. tomorrow night on Classical Minnesota Public Radio.
Classical Minnesota Public Radio Tonight we celebrate Dale Warland! At 7 pm, hear Echoes of Christmas with the Dale Warland Singers. At 8 pm, we broadcast our recording of The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra's September performance of Berlioz's L'Enfance du Christ featuring Dale Warland's SPCO Chorale.
Classical Minnesota Public Radio Christmas isn't Christmas without a performance of Handel's "Messiah." This morning on Performance Today, hear a recent concert by Boston's Handel and Haydn Society. "Messiah" has been a hit ever since its premiere in 1742 -- in early performances, ladies were asked not to wear hoop skirts and men were advised to lea...ve their swords at home, in order to accommodate more concertgoers in the hall.
Ann L. Thompson Finally, a link! I've been trying to find this link on the MPR site (which I find quite challenging) since early this month. I see this as a most excellent Christmas gift. I guess the searching is kind of an Advent thing????
Tim Plambeck I love listening to Classical MPR on the internet. The best Public Radio in the world. Not kidding!
Classical Minnesota Public Radio Today's reason why we love working at MPR: a preview performance of Christmas with Cantus over lunch. We still have goosebumps! Remember that MPR members get 20% off tickets to the show.
