Collectors' Corner with Henry Fogel

 

Hosted by Henry Fogel, Collectors' Corner is a weekly two-hour series. 

After the huge success of The Callas Legacy and The Art of Wilhelm Furtwängler, Henry
Fogel returned with Collectors' Corner.  Mr. Fogel had the following thoughts: "The series
will present a wide range of recordings that I feel are true classics of the industry.  Recordings
to be included will feature either unusual repertoire that I feel deserves a wider public, or
performances unique in their interpretive profile, sense of commitment, and intensity.  Many
of these recordings will be long out-of-print, or hard to locate in the United States."

The series includes a broad range of orchestral, vocal, chamber and solo-instrumental music.

On Collectors' Corner this quarter, highlights will include the music by Joseph Bohuslav Foerster,
Takashii Asahina's final performance, music of Vladimir Godar, rarely heard Villa-Lobos; the
symphonies of Hugo Alfvén, the music of Astor Piazzolla and the great Russian mezzo, Zara
Dolukhanova.
