This week on “Sweetness and Light,” it’s an hour of “unbowed strings.” All of these string instruments will be plucked, struck, or strummed, with not a bow in sight. We’ll hear works for zither, guitar, cimbalom, harp, and mandolin, by composers Anton Karas, Ferdinando Carulli, Zoltán Kodály, Reinhold Gliere, and Samuel Siegel. We forgo the bow, but strings are the thing on “Sweetness and Light,” this Saturday morning at 11:00 EST/8:00 PST, exclusively on KWAX, the radio station of the University of Oregon!
Stream it, wherever you are, at the link kwax.uoregon.edu and soon here at rossamico.com/radio!
