The airwaves will resound with shrieks of horror and mad laughter – and not just because it’s Halloween.
Today is the last day of The Classical Network’s Fall Membership Campaign. We’re all getting a little punchy, so if you haven’t supported us recently, please do so now, before it’s too late! It’s the end of our fiscal year, and we need your help to put us in the black.
The sooner we meet our goal, the sooner we can devote the day to uninterrupted music, including some of the larger symphonic poems and suites on spooky themes. In the meantime, we will do our best to keep you entertained with bite-sized works – tricks or treats dealing with ghosts, ghouls and witches. So the gibbering madness won’t be restricted to our on-air hosts.
On today’s Noontime Concert, we’ll commemorate the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation. It was on this date in 1517 that Martin Luther allegedly nailed his “Ninety-five Theses” to the door of All Saints’ Church in Wittenberg. To mark the occasion, we’ll share a program presented in Princeton last month by the Kinnara Ensemble, featuring works by Luther, César Franck, Thomas Tallis, Johann Sebastian Bach, Johannes Brahms, and Hugo Distler. More information about the choir, including its new CD, “Provenance,” may be found at its website, kinnaraensemble.org.
Now is your time to howl! Join us in membership. Help us to wrap up our fall campaign and make this drive a success by calling 1-888-232-1212, or by leaving a few bones at wwfm.org. You are our life’s blood. Thank you for doing your part to support spellbinding music on WWFM – The Classical Network.
AaaaaOOOOOooOooOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
