Celebrating Beethoven’s birthday this Friday (12/12, rebroadcast Saturday 12/13)

We’re beginning a two-part program that may extend to others on this week’s Dress Circle (1/18 7:00 p.m.) as we sample four original French musicals. These are not French translations of English language works as we’ve done in the past but works that began as French originals, and this program will look at two stage and two screen musicals.

As promised, we’ll be looking at two operettas on this week’s Sunday Opera (1/25 3:00 p.m.), Joseph Beer’s “The Polish Wedding” and Leo Fall’s “The Rose of Istanbul.”

Even though the winter hasn’t been too awful for our section of the country, I’m still hearing many people moaning that they want spring. With that in mind, on this week’s Dress Circle (1/11 7:00 p.m.) we’re going to jump ahead to March (when the spring equinox hits) with some Marches from the Musicals.

It seems as though we just went through the holidays, and we’re already starting February! To that end, we’re welcoming the month with overtures and opening numbers from ten February musicals on this week’s Dress Circle (2/1 7:00 p.m.).
