Every Monday morning at 9:15, I join John Birge on Classical MPR to discuss stories we're featuring on our website. Here are the stories we'll be talking about today.
Who's Britain's favorite British composer? It's no surprise, really.
Have you ever wondered why lullabies work...even when you don't want them to? As Eleanor Peterson notes, our response to relaxing music is partly nature, and partly nurture.
This weekend, the National Lutheran Choir premiered a new composition by Paul John Rudoi. Even if you weren't able to hear the piece in concert, you'll be moved by the story of why it was commissioned — and how it seeks to evoke the experiences of a family living with dementia.
