Broken Hearts & Madmen,
I have been a fan of Patricia O’Callaghan for over a decade. It’s great to hear her unique voice and repertoire featured on WFMT!
Hi Lisa, I would just like to say that I very much enjoy your program and the new release of Astor Piazolla featuring jason Vieaux, guitar…where can I obtain a recording of the new release?….sadly, there are no stores to purchase CDs, records or tapes.
I loved “Yo soy Maria.” Both composer and performer are new to me. Thank you for widening my musical experience!
Michael,
You’ll find a link for each recording on The New Releases blog. That will take you to the website Arkiv Music, where you can purchase the CD. If you go through WFMT, a small portion of the sale will come back to support the station. Yes, it’s sad there are so few stores anymore. But Arkiv and Amazon both have huge classical libraries if you’re willing to order online.
Lisa
