What better way to welcome the summer solstice and honor Juneteenth than with the relaxed sound of “Summertime” sung by Audra McDonald? It’s a jazz standard that comes from the 1935 opera featuring an African American cast, Porgy and Bess. Hear it on 91.1, 107.5, and our music stream.

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