Yesterday, Wisconsin Public Radio programmed a lot of spring music, and The Ear expects the same for today’s programming.īut you can be your own DJ if you want.
Of course there are violin concertos by Antonio Vivaldi and Arcangelo Corelli choral works by Johann Sebastian Bach and Franz Joseph Haydn chamber music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart orchestral music by Robert Schumann, Peter Tchaikovsky and Igor Stravinsky piano pieces by Felix Mendelssohn and Edvard Grieg songs by Franz Schubert and Johannes Brahms. (You can hear the opening of the famously tuneful and upbeat sonata, performed by violinist Itzhak Perlman and pianist Vladimir Ashkenazy, in the YouTube video at the bottom.) The Ear is fickle and his choice changes from year to year.īut lately, his favorite has been the “Spring” Sonata in F Major for violin and piano by Ludwig van Beethoven. So there is a lot of music to choose from when you want to celebrate season musically. Spring has been an inspiration to many composers. Today is the Vernal Equinox, bringing the first day of spring. Here is Madison there is still some snow on the ground. But it should all be gone by the end of today, which, like yesterday, will reach into the 50s. Has March’s proverbial lion finally yielded to the lamb? What is your favorite music celebrating spring? | March 20, 2017
