#ClassicsaDay #Divertimento Week 1
For October, the challenge is to post videos of divertimentos written by classical composers.
Seems straightforward enough. However I quickly discovered that every composer had a different idea of what "light in character" meant.
#ClassicsaDay #SymYesNo Week 3
There is a small subset of symphonic works within the classical repertoire that appear misnamed. Most composers choose their titles carefully. But when the title runs counter to expectations, disagreements arise.
We are grateful for the generosity of the Joseph and Robert Cornell Memorial Foundation and UVA Arts Council, supporting WTJU and CharlottesvilleClassical.org.
