Looking for a little refreshment for your Monday afternoon? Drink deep from “Pliny’s Fountain.” Arthur Meulemans’ opulent tone poem could have made Ottorini Respighi weep with envy. It’s one of three rarely-heard highlights I’ll be presenting this afternoon, including a brassy symphony by Nikolai Myaskovsky and a melodically appealing string quartet by Reynaldo Hahn, a composer better known for his art songs. We’ll have those and much more, between 4 and 7 p.m. EDT, on WWFM – The Classical Network and at wwfm.org.
