#ClassicsaDay #Classical1924 Week 1
The challenge for January 2024 is to post performances of classical works that were either composed, premiered, or first recorded in 1924.
WorldView Episode 19: Independence Day
Happy July Fourth! In honor of the national holiday, WorldView episode nineteen contains a 200-year timeline of American classical music—from 1770 to 1970. Rather than focus on one specific composer in this week’s post, I’ve included three artists featured in the episode. Have a safe and happy holiday!
#ClassicsaDay #ClassicalTimeMachine Week 3
Classical musicians have been making recordings since the 1890s. So we have over 130 years of documented performance practices. And we can judge first-hand the artistry of legendary performers.
We are grateful for the generosity of the Joseph and Robert Cornell Memorial Foundation and UVA Arts Council, supporting WTJU and CharlottesvilleClassical.org.
