The arpeggione was created in the 19th Century as a hybrid of a guitar and cello, but it's been left behind on the imaginary Island of Misfit Instruments. Our music tonight includes the sonata Schubert wrote for it with cellist David Finkel and pianist Wu Han. Tune in at 8 p.m. on 91.1 and 107.5 FM and our music stream.

Born in Madison, Wisconsin, Kate Remington joined WSHU in December of 2000, and she's been WSHU's Music Director since 2002.
