Ahoy, me hearties! An’ ARRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

It be the 19th o’ September – International Talk Like a Pirate Day! Join me this afternoon, won’t ye, for a dead man’s chest full o’ classical music bullion.

There be a symphony by an English composer o’ the name o’ George Lloyd. Also a concerto fer violin an’ orchester by th’ Hungarian fiddler Jenő Hubay. Miecszylaw Weinberg ain’t a name that’s offen heard o’ th’ high seas, but we be hearin’ ‘im t’day. Furthermore, I’ve a mind t’ open up with a broadside o’ William Alwyn’s music fer “The Crimson Pirate.”

ARRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! Lissen ye from 4 t’ 7 o’ the clock (EDT), t’ WWFM – The Classical Network an’ wwfm.org, ‘r it’s the Black Spot fer ye!

If ‘tis proof ye be needin’, look ye ‘ere:
