All weekend long, WFMT will be honoring Memorial Day in music. Check out these highlights that you won’t want to miss.

It’s been a strange, difficult year for the music world, which is all the more reason to celebrate musical excellence.

In operatic, vocal, and instrumental selections , we pay tribute to the influential maternal figures in all of our lives.

In the gap between a languid summer and a long winter, there’s just enough room left for fall. It’s a season for transformation, comfort, reflection, and growth. In other words, it’s the perfect time to grab some cider, take in that brilliant fall foliage, and enjoy this playlist created for you by WFMT staff and hosts!

Though we tend to remember our favorite composers for their music first and foremost, many of them were virtuosic in more ways than one.

Composer Charles Ives gave us wonderful works for solo instruments, voice, band, chamber ensemble, and orchestra. He also gave us some wonderful recordings of himself performing his own work.
