      Musical Dynasties

      This week’s topic, “Musical Dynasties,” was suggested by a station in Arizona. Andy Bade, Music Host for Classical 90.5 KUAT-FM in Tucson, wrote in with some program ideas. So, Musical Dynasties: Gabrieli, Bach, Mozart, Mendelssohn, Robert and Clara Schumann, Strauss: the Johanns and Richard, and ending with the Haydns: Joseph and Michael. Thanks so much for taking the time to write!
