Pianist Igor Zhukov, an Emil Gilels pupil who remains largely unrecognized in the West, died on Friday at the age of 80. We’ll hear one of Zhukov’s remarkable concerto recordings this afternoon on The Classical Network. There will also be plenty of birthdays to observe, including those of composers Daniel-François-Esprit Auber, Havergal Brian, Frederic Cowen, Frederick Delius, Ludolf Nielsen, and Georg Christoph Wagenseil, as well as those of performers Malcolm Binns and Cho-Liang Lin. I honestly don’t know if there will be enough cake to go around. Join me for eight birthdays and a funeral, this Monday, from 4 to 7 p.m. EST, on WWFM – The Classical Network and wwfm.org.
