Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin
Peter Tchaikovsky, part I (1840-1893)
Bill launches into the first part of a two-part series on the Russian Romantic composer Peter Tchaikovsky. Though shunned by some other Russian composers as sounding too Western, Tchaikovsky was loved throughout the world as a great Russian composer. Caught between East and West, he created his own sound that to this day is still treasured and that Russians are proud to call their own. Bill starts with Mikhail Glinka, who broke from the Italian school to create the Russian school of music, and ends with excerpts of Tchaikovsky’s "Swan Lake."
10:00 pm - 12:00 am

Baroque&Before with Candice Agree
Handel’s Judas Maccabeus
Handel's gripping oratorio commemorates the story of Judas Maccabeus, who led the Maccabean Jews against the invasion by the Seleucids, thus preserving Jewish culture and religion by regaining control of Jerusalem and rededicating the Temple. Nicholas McGegan leads the Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra and the U.C. Berkely Chamber Chorus, with tenor Guy de May, soprano Lisa Saffer, and countertenor Brian Asawa.
