This show is no longer airing.

Beat the summer heat this August and come with WQXR to Colorado, for a sampling of great classical music. Since 1949, fans of classical music and some of the world’s most celebrated performers have flocked to the Aspen Music Festival. This year, more than 300 musical events will take place over 8 weeks, making it America’s premier classical music festival. WQXR will present highlights from these performances in a one hour program, hosted by our own Terrance McKnight.
