All summer long, WCRB is spotlighting American music and the composers who weave the musical fabric of our country.
  • Dima Slobodeniouk leads the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Tanglewood Festival Chorus in John Adams’ “Harmonium” and, with four stellar soloists, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony and its “Ode to Joy.”
  • On WCRB In Concert with BEMF, Italian brothers Enrico and Marcello Gatti perform selections from Telemann’s Paris quartets, and the BEMF Orchestra performs Handel’s "Water Music" and Telemann’s own aquatic suite "Hamburger Ebb’ und Fluth."
  • In his first appearance with the Boston Symphony Orchestra since 2015, pianist Evgeny Kissin plays piano concertos by Scriabin and Mozart, and Andrey Boreyko conducts works by Rimsky-Korsakov and Liadov.
What makes an opera performance great? GBH Music partnered with Boston Lyric Opera, New England Conservatory of Music, and legendary opera singers Patricia Racette, Susan Graham, and Davóne Tines to explore an extraordinary art form.
