In case you missed it, my radio documentary on Romeo Cascarino has been posted as a webcast, just in time for the composer’s centenary.
The show includes commentary by soprano Dolores Ferraro, the composer’s wife for over 40 years, and arts writer and longtime champion Tom Di Nardo; also rare recordings from the family archive, music from a Naxos release of Cascarino’s orchestral music with JoAnn Falletta conducting, and a selection from the composer’s magnum opus, the opera “William Penn.”
