This Thursday morning on WPRB will be the series finale of “Classic Ross Amico.” And if I have to go, I’m taking everyone with me. We’ll have a full playlist of music by composers who died horribly, either in accidents, through assassinations, from bizarre illnesses, or in otherwise spectacular fashion.

Take heart! I won’t be leaving WPRB entirely. Listen for me on Sunday mornings, beginning on February 11, for something entirely fresh. Whether it will be an opera show or a program devoted to light music is still up in the air, so feel free to state your preference by leaving a comment below.

In the meantime, I hope you’ll join me for the bitter end, this Thursday morning from 6 to 11 EST, on WPRB 103.3 FM and wprb.com. We’ll shudder at spectacular deaths of the (de)composers, on Classic Ross Amico.
