GoWest,
Though this episode of Pipedreams was originally created to fill 88 minutes, WQXR could only fit an hour into the schedule. We apologize for the inconvenience.
What happen tonight..I was waiting to hear the Concerto for Organ,Strings,& Percussion by Steve Paulus. This work was teased in the opening of the show along with other works to be played in the second half of the show..
