Live Broadcast of Janáček's The Cunning Little Vixen
Thursday, June 23, 2011
WQXR puts your ears in Avery Fisher Hall for the New York Philharmonic production of Janáček's The Cunning Little Vixen. Janácek brings a comic strip to life in this touching tale of the cycle of life in a European forest. This new production conducted by Alan Gilbert and directed by Douglas Fitch features soprano Isabel Bayrakdarian in the role of the Vixen.

Stan,
The national feed from Avery Fisher Hall was experiencing technical difficulties that affected all the radio stations carrying this live broadcast.
Wunderbar from North Texas
Why don;t I have any sound now? I get it on other stations?
