January 24, 2018 Astrology and The Planets
We welcome famed Toledo astrologer Janet Amid into the studio for an analysis of Gustav Holst's The Planets - which were the product of Holst's fascination with astrology, not astronomy. You can hear The Planets alongside Strauss' Thus Spake Zarathustra at the Toledo Symphony's Classic Concerts during the first weekend in February.

January 10, 2018 Let's talk about Brahms (and Beethoven too!)
Inspired by the Toledo Symphony's concerts which pair Brahms and Beethoven (with conductor Giordano Bellincampi and pianist Stewart Goodyear), we envision a musical cage match between the two titanic composers. Also, violinist Merwin Siu and pianist Rachel Zeithamel perform Brahms' contribution to the F.A.E. sonata in our performance studio.
