Later This Hour, Pt Commentator

Later this hour, PT commentator Miles Hoffman will be exploring the elastic definition of the term "classical" music. From a recently released CD, here's an exploration of that elasticity in classical era composer Ludwig Van Beethoven's Songs From the British Isles. Soprano Elaine Woods, contralto Carolyn Watkinson, tenor Josef Protschka and baritone Richard Salter perform "Music, Love and Wine" and Richard Salter performs "Sunset." They're accompanied by violinist Christian Altenburger, cellist Julius Berger and pianist Helmut Deutsch. (Sony Classical SK 64301)
