Amy Beach’s Gaelic Symphony was the first symphony by an American woman to be published. Drawing on Irish and Scottish folk melodies, Beach evokes rolling hills, ancient ballads, and a deep emotional connection to the past. Tune in and be transported, tonight on 91.1, 107.5, and the WSHU music stream.
From WSHU's daytime and evening classical programs, Emily Boyer and Lauren Rico give you a heads-up on some of the best music they've selected.
