Sunday Baroque: peace-loving music

In 1870, abolitionist and poet Julia Ward Howe wrote her MOTHER’S DAY PROCLAMATION, imploring mothers to unite in promoting peace. She said, “Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn all that we have been able to teach them of charity, mercy and patience.” You can celebrate Mother’s Day with peace-loving music on Sunday Baroque this weekend, starting at 7 a.m. on 91.1, 107.5 and wshu.org, and at 10 a.m. on 89.9.

Suzanne Bona is the host and executive producer of Sunday Baroque, a nationally syndicated weekly radio show of Baroque and early music which she originated on WSHU in 1987.
