| 1:00 pm | New York Philharmonic |
|
This concert broadcast represents virtually the Orchestra's entire 2007-08 season. The New York Philharmonic is by far the oldest symphony orchestra in the United States, and one of the oldest in the world. Founded in 1842 by a group of local musicians led by American-born Ureli Corelli Hill, the Orchestra currently plays some 180 concerts a year. On December 18, 2004, the Philharmonic gave its 14,000th concert - a milestone unmatched by any other orchestra in the world. American conductor Lorin Maazel began his tenure as Music Director at the beginning of the 2002-03 season, 60 years after making his debut with the orchestra at the age of 12 at Lewisohn Stadium in New York, then the orchestra's summer venue. A second-generation American, born in 1930 in Paris, Mr. Maazel was raised and educated in the United States. He has conducted throughout Europe, Australia, North and South America, Japan, the former Soviet Union, and at most international festivals and opera houses, and has appeared with all the major symphony orchestras. His numerous recordings include complete symphonic cycles of Beethoven, Brahms, Mahler, Sibelius, Rachmaninoff, and Tchaikovsky, as well as extensive operatic repertoire. He was the first American to appear at Bayreuth (in 1960), and was inducted into the American Classic Music Hall of Fame in 2002.

But for many, band was the first experience of learning to play together... nicely. Wind and Rhythm is a weekly broadcast of pure band music, produced in Tulsa with host Doug Brown. The program features selections from Concert Bands and Wind Ensembles to Brass Bands and Percussion Ensembles.
