Samuel Barber wrote his Capricorn Concerto at his house, a place he nicknamed “Capricorn” for its sunlit hilltop views. The music keeps that sense of openness: bright solos, fresh colors, and a feeling of stepping away from the rush. Hear it tonight on 91.1, 107.5, and our 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'll be sharing with you.
