Host Henry Fogel guides listeners through classical music history… through his personal record collection
Collectors’ Corner is about discovering and rediscovering music that rocked the world in days gone by. From a treasury of records amassed from decades of jaunts to shops across the globe, host Henry Fogel crafts a riveting and moving historical narrative. Fogel picks a wide range of recordings which he considers, “true classics of the industry…either unusual repertoire that I feel deserve a wider public, or performances unique in their interpretive profile, sense of commitment, and intensity.”
