Sproing!


Spring is when a young man's fancy turns to thoughts of love. That and not having to shovel snow might make this the most anticipated season of the year. Whatever your reaction to the warmth that follows winter, there is plenty of music to celebrate that in between season when it isn't too hot or cold.

On the Piano this Sunday we spring it up with music from China that weds music to the happiness of spring and another that describes the gusty winds of the season. Christian Sinding created a work that finds joy in these warmer winds and Joachim Raff composed music that "blooms" in to life in his Ode to Spring. Also included is a "pictorial mood" of Antonin Dvorak and his student Josef Suk. Music of love, warmth, anticipation and life - hear it all on the Piano this Sunday afternoon at 5 on KPAC and KTXI.
