This Thursday morning on WPRB, I just want to relax and enjoy the birds. Perhaps you’d care to join me?

We’ll have a full playlist of works on avian themes, including symphonies by Alan Hovhaness, Einar Englund, and Anthony Philip Heinrich, the so-called “Beethoven of Kentucky,” who was a personal friend of John James Audubon. There will be abundant music inspired by migratory birds, songbirds, scavengers, raptors, sardonic birds, ominous birds, and literal cuckoos.

Prepare to take wing, this Thursday morning, from 6 to 11 EST, on WPRB 103.3 FM and wprb.com. We’ll totally freak for the beak, on Classic Ross Amico.
