Not quite Flight of the Bumblebee….
Here’s another moment of natural bliss, courtesy of the wildlife at Mercer County Community College - watch for the hummingbird darting around the branches! For your musical soundtrack to this little film, we’ve got a welcome treat coming your way - David Osenberg will be returning to the air this afternoon, bringing you music from 4 - 7 pm. Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin wraps up a look at “the friends Schubert never got to meet” at 7 pm. And then at 8 pm we celebrate the birthday (this past Wednesday) of Leonard Bernstein with a rebroadcast of What Makes it Great with Rob Kapilow, featuring a Leonard Bernstein songbook. Wind down your evening with Millennium of Music at 10 pm, and look ahead to a great weekend coming your way - including Inside Music with The Discovery Orchestra’s George Marriner Maull tomorrow at 7:30 pm.
