Classically Speaking

We have some good, substantive interviews to post for you here soon, but for now, while we're busy raising money to support WV Public Radio and this site, I have just a few more short silly things to hopefully make you smile.

If Carmen and her friends were on Facebook..., well her drama would fit right in.


When practicing playing Rimsky-Korsakov's Flight of the Bumble-bee, I bet some musicians have wished they could eliminate a few of those notes!

Another classical music product placement -- someone just let me know of a whiskey commercial that makes good use of Saint-Saens's Danse Macabre (very appropriate for this time of year):

And then some radio fun...with George Hrab's "Symphonic Call-In Show":

Finally, in honor of the WV Symphony's upcoming Beethoven Symphony No. 5 concert, here's a classic from P.D.Q. Bach -- New Horizons in Music Appreciation:
