"Klasikā" tiekamies ar diriģentu Intu Teterovski, un šoreiz sarunas tēmas ir divas. Pirmkārt, 23. maijā Alojā gaidāmie VI Virsdiriģentu svētki, kas veltīti pirmo trīs Vispārējo latviešu Dziesmu svētku virsdiriģenta Indriķa Zīles 185. dzimšanas dienai. Svētkos piedalīsies Dziesmu un Deju svētku virsdiriģenti, viņu vadītie kori un Limbažu novada kori, un Ints Teterovskis ir šo svētku mākslinieciskais vadītājs. Sarunājamies par šo svētku tradīciju un šī gada koncertu, kura veidošanā iesaistījušies visi virsdiriģenti, kuri izvēlējušies savas mīļākās dziesmas; par notikumiem bagāto dienu, ozolu stādīšanu un Indriķa Zīles kuplo ģimeni, kura arī būšot klāt. Vairāk par Virsdiriģentu svētkiem šeit! Bet interviju turpinām par Īles baznīcas koncertdzīvi un sadarbību ar Amerikas koriem, vietas atdzīvināšanu un īpašo auru, kas šeit valda, piesaistot vietējo publiku. 22. maijā plkst. 20.00 Īles luterāņu baznīcā risināsies starptautisks koru koncerts Voces Unitatis. Tajā piedalīsies Nevadas Universitātes sieviešu koris "Argenta" (Lasvegasa, ASV), diriģentes Stefānija Kounsila (Stephanie Council) un Sāra Norda (Sarah Noorda), kā arī jauniešu koris "Balsis" un diriģents Ints Teterovskis vadībā. Voces Unitatis ir tradicionāls starptautisks koru koncerts, kas ik gadu apvieno dziedātājus no dažādām valstīm kopīgā mākslinieciskā dialogā. Programma piedāvā daudzveidīgu muzikālo pieredzi, savijot dažādu tautu mūzikas tradīcijas ar sakrālo kormūziku, izceļot katrā kultūrā nozīmīgāko. Koncertā skanēs Palestrīnas, Lasso renesanses mūzikas paraugi, kā arī mūsdienu igauņu, latviešu un Ziemeļamerikas komponistu mūzika - Tormis, Ūsbergs, Kalniņš, Pauls, Vasks, Tiguls, Hogans, Smailija, Remzija, Betina, Kartela un Ezmeila. Atzīmējot izcilā latviešu komponista Pētera Vaska 80 gadu jubileju, kori apvienosies, lai atskaņotu “Fruit of Silence” ar Mātes Terēzes lūgšanas vārdiem. Tikām 30. maijā plkst. 20.00 kamermūzikas koncerts "Itālijas baroks Īlē", kurā skanēs krāšņa 17. un 18. gadsimta itāļu komponistu mūzikas programma. Zināmākais no programmā iekļautajiem komponistiem ir venēcietis Antonio Vivaldi, par kura kompozīciju "Nakts" un tās iespējamo saistību ar šausmu žanru, kā arī citiem skaņražiem, viņu opusiem un dažādiem interesantiem faktiem vēsta sagatavotie stāstījumi. Radoši un emocionāli jaudīgi šo baroka mūzikas partitūru lasījumi ir viens no aspektiem, ko vērts dzirdēt. Kā īpašs pārsteigums jeb bonuss – patiešām unikāls skanējums, ko veido meistarīga, šķiet, ar baroka mūziku nesavienojama mūzikas instrumentu saspēle. Cik kaislīgi skan bandoneons un akordeons, izpildot, piemēram, tango, vai kokle tautas un mūsdienu mūzikas kompozīcijās, tik pat spilgti un emocionāli sakāpināti šie instrumenti izdzied mīlas pārdzīvojumus, smieklus un asaras baroka mūzikas ietvarā. Pārsteigumiem un arī skaistas mūzikas baudījumam būs būt! Koncertā uzstāsies mūziķu apvienība: akordeonists un bandoneonists Artūrs Noviks, koklētājas Anda Eglīte un Dace Priedīte, un baroka vijolniece Lāsma Meldere-Šestakova.
„Vivaldi und ich“ ist die Verfilmung eines historischen Romans. Der Film erzählt eine fiktive Geschichte an einem realen Ort, einem venezianischen Waisenhaus, an dem Antonio Vivaldi in der Tat viele Jahre gewirkt hat. Der italienische Regisseur Damiano Michieletto ist in erster Linie als Opernregisseur bekannt und gefragt. Im Sommer wird er Verdis Oper „La Traviata“ erstmals auf die Seebühne der Bregenzer Festspiele bringen.

Trešdien, 13. maijā, koncertzālē ”Latvija” Ventspils kamerorķestris diriģenta Aigara Meri vadībā godinās trīs 2026. gada lieljubilārus - spāni Manuelu de Falju, kuram aprit 150. gadskārta, 90. dzimšanas dienā pieminēs izcilo simfoniķi Romualdu Kalsonu un suminās Pēteri Vasku, kuram šopavasar svinam 80. Koncerta solisti – vijolniece Elīna Bukša, klarnetists, Igaunijas Nacionālās operas orķestra mūziķis Edmunds Altmanis un soprāns Katrīna Paula Felsberga. Intervijā ar Aigaru Meri uzzinām par gaidāmā koncerta ideju un sadarbību ar solistiem, koncertdzīvi Ventspilī un publikas izglītošanu, tuvākajiem radošajiem plāniem ar Ventspils kamerorķestri, jaukto kori "Ventspils", un, atklājot sava darba aktualitātes Jelgavā, Aigars atcerējas arī savus soļus, uzsākot ceļu diriģenta profesijā. Aigars Meri: Veidojot koncertprogrammas, skatos kopsakarības, kurā gadā ir vai nav apaļa jubileja, lai būtu šī saistība, bet tas noteikti nav noteicošais un vienīgais faktors. Manuels de Falja. Kā nonācu līdz Septiņām spāņu dziesmām? Pirms dažiem gadiem bija brīnišķīgs koncerts Jelgavā, kur mēs šīs dziesmas atskaņojām kopā ar Ilonu Bageli. Pēc neilga laika man bija tas gods atskaņot Osvaldo Golihova dziesmu ciklu ar Katrīnu Paulu Felsbergu. Mēs ar Katrīnu uzreiz vienojāmies, ka skatāmies tālāk nākotnē. Tad, neatceros gadalaiku, neatceros mēnesi, no manas puses bija piedāvājums: “Varbūt tu vēlies nodziedāt “Septiņas spāņu dziesmas”?” Katrīna bija ļoti atsaucīga un teica “jā, mana skolotāja Berlīnē tieši man kādreiz ieteica un atsūtīja vienu no šī cikla dziesmām”. Tā mēs nonācām pie šī cikla atskaņojuma. Ar Edmundu Altmani esam klasesbiedri jau no Emīla Dārziņa skolas, pēc tam esam mācījušies un muzicējuši kopā. Man ir igauņu izcelsme, Edmunds tīrs latvietis, Zemgales dēls, kuram bija iespēja doties studēt uz Igauniju. Pēc tam viņš tur iesakņojās un šobrīd tur strādā un dzīvo. Sadarbība iecerēta jau ilgāku laiku, ar Operu arī salīdzinoši bieži ir viesizrādes Igaunijā. Atceros sarunu, kad Edmundam zvanīju un teicu: “Edmund, nākamgad mums ir šād jubilāri. Varbūt Romualds Kalsons?”. Viņš atbildēja: “Jā, jau vairākas reizes esmu piedāvājis Arvo Volmeram viņa Klarnetes koncertu nospēlēt Igaunijā, bet diriģents vienmēr sliecies par labu Mocartam". Tā mēs nonācām pie Romualda Kalsona. Šī gada jubilārs - Pēteris Vasks. Pie šī Vijoļkoncerta mēs nonācām netradicionāli, jo sazināties ar Elīnu Bukšu ieteica Ventspils koncertzāles “Latvija” mākslinieciskais vadītājs Guntis Cimiņš. Tā sākās mūsu komunikācija. Sākumā ideja bija par Filipu Glāsu, pēc tam par Antonio Vivaldi un beigās mēs nonācām pie šī brīnišķīgā vijoļkoncerta. Šī būs mūsu pirmā sadarbība, tāpēc ar nepacietību gaidu un ceru uz brīnišķīgu kopdarbu."

In today's episode, we're wrapping up our three-part series on Antonio Vivaldi with a piece that feels both intimate and expressive—the Concerto for Two Violins in A Minor. If you've been listening along with this series, you already know how much I've loved exploring Vivaldi with you. Today's piece gives us something a little different from The Four Seasons—and it invites us to listen in a whole new way.
Avec Tecla Insolia et Michele Riondino Venise, 1716. LʹHospice della Pietà recueille et forme de jeunes orphelines à la musique. Dissimulées au public, souvent masquées ou derrière une grille, lʹorchestre de jeunes filles se produit pour les riches mécènes de l'institution. Cécilia, 20 ans, y excelle en tant que violoniste. Jusqu'au jour où l'arrivée dʹun nouveau maître de musique, Antonio Vivaldi, vient bousculer sa vie et celle de lʹHospice. Connu pour ses mises en scènes de théâtre et dʹopéra, Damiano Michieletto, sʹinspire, pour son premier long métrage, du roman Stabat Mater de Tiziano Scarpa et reconstitue une partie méconnue de la vie de Vivaldi. Par Rafael Wolf et Stéphane Gobbo.

Parmi les plus grands violonistes de tous les temps, on retrouve Antonio Vivaldi, l'auteur du chef d'œuvre "Les Quatre saisons", qu'il compose en 1725. Soixante ans plus tard, en 1782 nait Nicollò Paganini, violoniste à la renommée tout aussi grandiose, qui se démarquera par sa réputation inquiétante de "violoniste du diable". De nombreux mystères entourent la vie, l'œuvre et la mort de Paganini. Nicollò Paganini est né en 1782 à Gênes, en Italie. A 4 ans, il commence à développer de nombreuses maladies, dont la rougeole, qui le laisseront dans un état chétif, fébrile et très blanc toute sa vie. Ce qui ne l'empêchera pas de se dévouer corps et âme à sa passion avec son talent hors norme : le violon. Pourquoi était-il surnommé le violoniste du diable ? Comment est-il devenu célèbre ?

When you think of the violin, or in country and roots music circles its kissing cousin the fiddle, what comes to mind? The Suzuki method, or Antonio Vivaldi perhaps? Maybe a song like “Ashokan Farewell” or “The Devil Went Down To Georgia”? But have you heard of Stuff Smith, Regina Carter, Papa John Creach, or Stéphane Grappelli? Charlotte artist Emanuel Wynter certainly has, and having grown up learning the Suzuki method, he would go on to take inspiration from violinists in a variety of genres to interpret his own love for blues, rock, soul and jazz. The result is a fresh take on the instrument in an electric and eclectic setting that also showcases his band's lock-tight grooves and his own clear and confident vocals. I spoke with Emanuel Wynter in his hometown of Charlotte about how he plays violin in a variety of music settings, from his own style over to session work and a praise band, and how his early love of blues and rock music translates to the instrument, which is far more versatile and expressive than you might expect. We touch on the three boxes that he needs to check before taking on a gig, and what he wants to get across with his lyrics as well. From vintage tube amps, double stops and a love for astronomy, architecture, and spontaneity, our conversation covers a lot of ground, and along the way, we feature a number of songs from Emanuel Wynter's live album From Orbit. Emanuel Wynter performs in Elkin, NC on October 11, 2025 (photo: Daniel Coston) Songs heard in this episode: “From Orbit” by Emanuel Wynter, from From Orbit“Stranger” by Emanuel Wynter, from From Orbit, excerpt“Barefoot Fiddler” by Johnny Gimble, from The Texas Fiddle Collection, excerpt“Bonaparte's Retreat” by Fidllin' Arthur Smith & His Dixieliners, from Fidllin' Arthur Smith & His Dixieliners, excerpt“Pastel Skies” by Emanuel Wynter, from From OrbitThank you for stopping by, and we hope you can spread the word about this series and help us reach more music fans just like yourself. Please take a moment and give us a top rating on your podcast platform of choice, and where you can, a review. Doing either, and especially both, boosts the ranking and therefore the visibility of this series to all the other music fans who also follow podcasts. Thanks to Charlotte photographer, writer and music producer Daniel Coston for letting me use his photo of Emanuel Wynter from his band's set in Elkin, NC at the Milltown Get Down in fall 2025. Daniel also shot the cover for the album From Orbit. This is Southern Songs and Stories, where our quest is to explore and celebrate the unfolding history and culture of music rooted in the American South, and going beyond to the styles and artists that it inspired and informed. - Joe Kendrick

I denne episoden forteller Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker og Radouan Mriziga om å samskape forestillingen Il Cimento dell'Armonia e dell'Inventione . De snakker om co-authorship som skapelsesformat, potensialet i å bryte hierarkier, hva det vil si å arbeide med det hyperpopulære musikkverket De Fire Årstider av Antonio Vivaldi, om musikkananalyse og potensialet som ligger i det allmennkjente.
Tota una setmana dedicada a Antonio Vivaldi, ara resumida en poc m
‘Nun the Wiser' is an irreverent new musical from the mind of Kat Carson. It is a satirical look at an imagined past where Italian nuns sing gospel music and dream of fame. It focusses on the lives of seven musical nuns. On the surface, they appear devout and ordinary, but beneath that exterior lies a world of interpersonal relationships, conflicts, love, and repressed emotion. Within the convent, the only permitted form of artistic expression is composing and performing religious music.Their lives are thrown into turmoil when the famous composer Antonio Vivaldi comes to hear their compositions. As a man, he has the power to change their lives and introduce their music to the outside world. The nuns ask Mr. Vivaldi to review their own works, but what will he make of their explicit writings about love and desire?Drawing on her extensive work on the music of the 17th and 18th centuries, and on her experiences in an all female education system, Kat has used the genre of musical theatre to examine LGBTQIA issues and to draw a picture of womanhood that is both funny and challenging. The nuns in the story are people first and foremost, and have their own dreams, lives, and troubles. The musical explores issues of sexual identity, living within a patriarchal society, and a love of music through the absurd lens of nuns in an 18th century convent.Website

There's no more familiar piece of classical music than Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons. But for all the recordings and broadcasts and interpretations of it that there has been over the past three centuries, there is still some mystery about the music. Why did Vivaldi write it? What were his inspirations? Where and when did The Four Seasons burst into life. The broadcaster and author Dr Hannah French has written a wonderful, incisive book called The Rolling Year that examines questions like this. In this special episode Peter and the violinist Min Kym sat down with Hannah to find out more about Vivaldi, his music, Mantua and Manchester. Enjoy the music. We'll be returning to the Travels Through Time format very soon!

Elisabetta Tiveron"Natale a Venezia"Musica sull'acquaNeos Edizioniwww.neosedizioni.itSedici racconti natalizi che narrano Venezia come città musicaleA cura di Elisabetta Tiveron e Caterina SchiavonCon una “ouverture” di Ilaria Serra Venezia è canto. La voce di Venezia non è mai un suono solitario. La sua musica è un'orchestra di rimbalzi, di rimandi, di rincorse. A Venezia l'acqua suona all'unisono: i remi, le prue, le voci, i passi, le sirene, le campane e i gabbiani orchestrano melodie fatte di sciabordii. Le onde incontrano sempre una sponda, un muro di mattoni, l'angolo di una calle, il fianco di uno scafo, la volta di un sotoportego da cui riverberare, intrecciandosi in un mosaico sonoro.Sedici racconti che narrano Venezia nel periodo natalizio attraverso una chiave di lettura speciale, la musica, che della città lagunare è stata sempre elemento distintivo.Venezia è una città musicale. Per la sua storia, che l'ha vista capitale europea della musica tra il Cinquecento e il Settecento: Claudio Monteverdi e il melodramma, Antonio Vivaldi, Benedetto e Alessandro Marcello, Tomaso Albinoni, Baldassare Galuppi, ecc. E per la sua conformazione unica, così facile alle sonorità spontanee.«La musica parla di Venezia quanto e più delle sue immagini da cartolina, e permette alle autrici e agli autori di questa antologia di muoversi liberi, creativi, curiosi. Natale, in queste pagine, è atmosfera, suggestione, ricordo, invenzione. È il momento in cui la musica interiore di ciascun personaggio si intreccia con la colonna sonora della città, e si fa racconto» (Elisabetta Tiveron e Caterina Schiavon).Giunta alla sua sesta edizione, l'antologia «Natale a Venezia» quest'anno si propone in modalità musicale, una vera e propria “partitura letteraria”, con note di programma, ouverture, movimenti e finale. Un puzzle di coinvolgenti storie, che risuonano e toccano corde nel profondo. In una gelida sera di dicembre un gruppo eterogeneo di donne si riunisce per le prove del coro e attraverso il canto richiamano la perduta anima sonora di Venezia, fatta di antiche canzoni di barcaioli, canti di lavoro e cori storici, un piccolo miracolo natalizio contro il silenzio e l'oblio; la pasticcera Sofia e un uomo misterioso a bordo di una barca che le offre una “musica della laguna” prodotta da fili di conchiglie; la musicista Sabine Perrin, detta La Gioconda dai suoi vecchi compagni si scuola, è insoddisfatta della sua vita da single e spera di trovare un marito a Venezia, ma di fronte ad un dono inaccettabile fugge; una donna, reduce da una storia finita, affronta la vigilia di Natale tra malinconia e ironia, l'incontro casuale con la canzone Driving Home for Christmas la spinge verso la sorella che l'aspetta e riscopre che “tornare a casa per Natale” significa, prima di tutto, sentirsi a proprio agio con se stessa; nel dicembre del 1755, l'Archiatra imperiale Gerard Van Swieten indaga sul misterioso deperimento della giovane Sofia e sospetta che il precettore, un abile violinista, stia usando antiche e nefaste armonie per un proprio scopo; un uomo morto vaga in una Venezia sospesa nella vigilia di Natale, cercando la strada di casa e la moglie che ha amato: guidato da un bambino misterioso, segue la musica dei ricordi attraverso le calli addobbate a festa; Sofia sosta sulla panchina rossa della Giudecca per onorare il ricordo del primo incontro dei nonni, Ilaria e Alberto; un giovane seminarista abruzzese, Gaetano, viene mandato a Venezia per inaugurare a Natale il nuovo, maestoso organo della chiesa di San Gurian; le prove del Concerto di Natale sono turbate dal pianto lamentoso di un bimbo nell'adiacente orfanotrofio della Pietà, l'antico istituto di Vivaldi; l'Agente 239 è a Venezia la Vigilia di Natale per estrarre l'anima di un caso irrisolto, un'esperienza resa una tortura dalla musica onnipresente e ossessiva di Last Christmas; Sorella Milagros, giovane suora filippina, rovescia la spesa del convento e teme di essere rispedita a Manila ma durante la messa di mezzanotte, la sua voce pura si innalza in canto, portando speranza, redenzione e pace a tutta la città; Clara eredita dalla cugina un piccolo ritratto del compositore Baldassare Galuppi che, appeso dietro una porta, prende vita; Guano da Piccione, musicista purista, si scontra con la commercializzazione ossessiva delle Quattro Stagioni di Vivaldi e preferisce esibirsi in strada la notte di Capodanno con musiche meno note, finendo arrestato; un violinista profugo, sopravvissuto al naufragio in cui ha perso moglie e figlia, trova rifugio a Venezia accolto da una donna di nome Maria, che gli restituisce dignità e voce facendogli riparare il violino; la giovane e squattrinata Matilde, con la passione per il canto, è assunta come maschera al Teatro La Fenice di Venezia per l'allestimento dell'atto veneziano de I racconti di Hoffmann, la celebre Barcarola.

With both a U.S. tour and a new session of Sky Academy booked for April/May, Uli Jon Roth is headed for an exciting Spring of 2026. It's all part of his passion to reach (and help his Sky Academy students reach) new musical heights. “A great musician is always growing,” says the German-born, U.K.-based guitar hero. Indeed, Uli could have rested on his laurels as the lava-hot lead player of '70s-era Scorpions hard rock. But, taking inspiration from the music of heroes such as Keith Jarrett, Jimi Hendrix, and Antonio Vivaldi, he has always strived for a much deeper level of artistic expression. In this exclusive visit to Sky Academy, we plug in with Uli and embark on some epic improvisational odysseys, gain insights into his hugely influential rock masterpiece “The Sails of Charon,” learn about his unique extended-neck Sky Guitars, and, best of all, learn why, as he says, “the fingers are the least important part of your sound.” Hosted by Jude Gold, this episode is brought to you by your online guitar instruction friends at TrueFire. TrueFire offers thousands of hours of guitar instruction from A-list players. For a free 30-day all-access membership (no credit card required!), click to truefire.com/safe.

Send us a textSpring intro“Welcome, my friends, to The Microphone Episode. Yes, this is the one where the. greatest composers of all time—individuals who shuffled off their mortal coil long ago—are handed a microphone for the very first time.Now you might also think of this episode as a promo or the introduction to the majority of the episodes in October where I take a deep dive into the life and music of approximately 25 noted classical musicians prior to 1900. Before I actually start, I wanna talk a little bit about the challenges involved in doing such a program.First, was the actual writing of the transcript for each podcast episode. I would read about and do research regarding each musician. Then I would know what questions to ask ChatGPT to give me a more interesting answer. For example, if I just asked ChatGPT to tell me about Beethoven - it really wouldn't have that much to go on - but if I specifically asked if Beethoven wrote any letters regarding his hearing loss, then it could give me some very useful answers. In fact, in one of the most moving documents in all of music history, Beethoven wrote in a letter to his brothers Carl and Johann in October 1802. He was only 31 at the time, but his hearing loss was advancing, and he poured out his despair, frustration, and longing for life and art. He never sent the letter—it was found among his papers after his death in 1827.[Closing music – Spring from The Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi, Performed by John Harrison,.

A animação Divertidamente 2 oferece uma rica oportunidade de refletirmos sobre o universo interior do Ser Humano. Nesta sequência, acompanhamos Riley entrando na adolescência, enfrentando os desafios naturais desta etapa: mudanças de escola, amizades, inseguranças e o surgimento de novas emoções como a ansiedade, a vergonha, o tédio e a inveja. Neste episódio do podcast filosófico da Nova Acrópole, os professores voluntários Paula Poloni e Gustavo Massen exploram, com base filosófica, como essas transformações internas são representadas de forma simbólica e educativa no filme. A crise de identidade vivida pela protagonista é analisada à luz do conceito de “senso de si”, destacando a importância da assimilação das experiências, inclusive das dolorosas, como fator essencial para a construção de uma personalidade equilibrada e madura. O episódio convida os jovens e adultos a refletirem sobre o poder das experiências vividas, a importância da educação de si mesmos e o papel fundamental dos valores humanos na formação do caráter. Confira as reflexões do filme Divertidamente 1 Participantes: Paula Poloni, Gustavo Massen e Danilo Gomes Trilha Sonora: As Quatro Estações, de Antonio Vivaldi

Louis XIV is dead, and his heir is a 5-year-old child. With so many deaths occurring in the royal family, it falls to an unlikely royal nephew, Philippe, duke of Orléans, to govern France until Louis XV comes of age. Completely unlike the callous old Sun King, Philippe is a man of the people who spurned Versailles and lived as a boisterous libertine.

The United States has gone, in less than six months, from being seen by many as a defender of democracy and human rights, to being the latest – and most powerful - administration to embrace authoritarianism. Amid a head-spinning flood of presidential orders and harsh policies - towards women, immigrants, the poor, the disabled and the sick, it's hard to know where to focus. In this episode, veteran Turkish journalist and human rights activist Murat Celikkan tells host Akwe Amosu what he has been paying attention to, and reflects on how Turkey's human rights movement has been trying to strengthen its own work.And in the Coda, why a dose of Baroque music might ease your mind.

Bird song caught the ear of Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi. And he even named a 1729 flute concerto for a bird — the goldfinch. The source of inspiration for Vivaldi's Goldfinch concerto, or Il Gardellino, was the European Goldfinch, a tiny bird found throughout much of Europe, where it frequents gardens and roadsides. No wonder Vivaldi found the goldfinch irresistible. More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

Once upon a time, there was a heroic knight, the greatest of Charlamagne's famed paladins, and his name was Orlando (or Roland, depending on whom you ask.) Among his many heroic deeds and great journeys was this: a quest to a magical isle to abduct the headstrong princess Angelica and steal the ashes of Melin (yes, that Merlin). As his failure to win Angelica's heart leads him down the path to madness, we must ask: is there hope for this broken hero after all? Antonio Vivaldi, famed composer of The Four Seasons, is not widely known for his operas, however, he composed between 70 and 100 in his lifetime. Join us for a discussion of this treasure of Baroque opera. Hosted by Pat and Jeff Counts (General Manager of the Grand Teton Music Festival, and KHOL's film critic) Grand Teton Music Festival
