New, Old…Newly Old?

On the Piano this Sunday New Music with John Tavener and Andre Previn marking the births of their children in music, then a pianist familiar to San Antonio audiences plays works by Rodolfo Halffter and a recent release of an old favorite, Ottorino Respighi's first portrait of the Eternal City with a four-hand piano performance of the Fountains of Rome with original artists!

Music new and old with sensations that are universal can be heard on the Piano this Sunday afternoon at 5 on KPAC & KTXI.

A new 85 year old recording?

On the Piano this Sunday I group together a wide range of new music from a musical horoscope of John Tavener to mark the birth of a child. Andre Previn takes that impulse much further by marking all of the birthdays of his children. We will hear Rudolfo Halffter's bagatelles and an homage to pianist Arthur Rubinstein and to end the program authentic Respighi. Is there such a thing? Well at least Ottorino is there at the piano, playing his Fountains of Rome.

The Piano, this Sunday at 5 on KPAC and KTXI.
