      Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin

      Strangers in a Strange Land

      We will hear the musical evolution of five mature composers as they started their new lives in America: Russian Igor Stravinsky, Hungarian Bela Bartok, German Kurt Weill, Italian Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco, and Austrian Ernst Toch. These five composers arrived in America early in the Twentieth Century and quickly became vital members of our American musical community. Bill leads us through their development of new sounds and relationships, all the while telling the fantastic stories that link us to their teachers, Rimsky-Korsakov and Richard Strauss.
