#ClassicsaDay #FallConcert Week 1
For the month of September, you're invited to post a work that your local symphony, chamber music ensemble, or choral society will be performing this fall.
Classics of American Romanticism Worth Revisiting
Leon Botstein and The Orchestra Now give these works some solid performances. If some sections sound a little clunky, it's the writing, not the playing.
Johann Wilms Piano Concertos Rescued from Obscurity
Wilms' music is well-crafted. And these concertos are certainly undeserving of the obscurity they were consigned to.
Early George Enescu Chamber Works Satisfy
If you're looking for 20th Century music that isn't afraid of beauty, give this a listen.

#ClassicsaDay #FunintheSun Week 5
The Classics a Day team chose to catch some rays this August. And to find out how many classical composers did so with their music.
Singer Pur Excels with Ludwig Senfl
An excellent addition to Singer Pur's extensive catalog. And some fine music from Renaissance master.
Chevalier de Saint-Georges Concertante Quartets Shine
The quartets show Bologne's skill as a composer. They're compact works that show a mastery of form and function.
