@Rosemary,
If it ended at 10:50 pm, then it was a part of the Exploring Music program, and so the pieces will not show up in the playlist. You can see the playlist for that Exploring Music program here:

To-day is Thursday Nov.29 and I'm only getting a playlist for Monday Nov. 26.Not very helpful. I just came home and heard just a few minutes of beautiful music, too short for me to recognize. Beautiful music, beautiful singer. What was it ? Who was he ? It ended around 10.50, just before Renee Fleming. Thanks.
@Fred,
Thanks for catching that, it's been corrected.
Beethoven's House, Heilegenstadt, Vienna (Fred Plotkin)
