| “Connoisseur Classics”
offers serious classical music lovers around the world music not
readily available from other classical outlets. We explore music from
the Middle Ages to the 21st Century; works rarely performed;
full-length, obscure operas; out-of-print recordings; and works by
little-known composers. In short, “Connoisseur Classics” will present
“alternative” classical music, designed for the more sophisticated and
adventurous listener. Our week in divided into themed days: Monday
will be devoted to chamber and instrumental music; Tuesday to opera;
Wednesday to symphonic music; Thursday will feature music for winds
and brass; Friday will offer great historical performances; Saturday
is what we call Grab Bag Day, when anything goes; and Sunday will
feature mostly choral and organ music. We invite you to join us on
line for an exciting music adventure.
