Mark O’Connor grew up steeped in American fiddle traditions - bluegrass, folk, and classical violin. In his Fiddle Concerto, he brings those worlds together, turning the sound of the American fiddle into a full-scale concerto for orchestra. And tonight, the composer is also the soloist. Hear Mark O’Connor perform his own Fiddle Concerto tonight on WSHU, 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.
