Not too used to classical music other than playing popular piano classics for my housebound 92 year old Nana when she lived with me in the '70's (late). I met Val Hymes when she was with WJZtv back I don't remember when!! That was quite a while ago and we are both suffering from natural causes!!! Run like the dickens, that man made snake is measuring us for our dirt nap!!!!
Take care my fellow critters.
It's "Paradisum" not Paradisium.
I heard the WQXR for the first time in N.Y.in 1958.
Since then I consider it the best Classical Music
Radio in the world.Try to keep it open.

This is a blessed discovery! Have a cold, so missing church, and on a whim, fouind this beautiful program. Thank you so much from a Marylander who survived through college at Columbia with WQXR.
