Alison Young leads a double life as one of our classical hosts and as a long-distance backpacker. As she takes a leave of absence to hike New Zealand's version of the Appalachian Trail, she shares the influence of classical music on her five-month, 1,800-mile trek.
Join SymphonyCast host Alison Young on a musical adventure in Poland and the Czech Republic in spring 2019. Guests will visit the places Frederic Chopin, Bedrich Smetana and Antonin Dvorak lived, worked and performed. Enjoy multicourse meals, historic sites and concerts at the legendary Prague Spring International Music Festival.
