You probably recognize the opening to Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. Those four insistent notes. There’s a symphony by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky that starts with the same driving intensity, so intense that it’s called the “fate theme”. Don’t try to fight fate—hear the symphony this morning on 91.1, 107.5, and our music stream.

We’re thrilled to introduce Emily Boyer as WSHU's morning classical host.
