As the world continues to mourn the passing—and celebrate the extraordinary legacy—of the great Robert Redford, Friday afternoon's Classical Music with Foley Schuler will find us featuring music from two of his classic films, including some of Henry Mancini's music for The Great Waldo Pepper and Randy Newman's music for The Natural. We'll also mark the anniversary of the premiere in 1998 of one of the most acclaimed operas of the last 30 years—André Previn's A Streetcar Named Desire—as Renée Fleming, who originated the role of Blanche DuBois in this gripping operatic adaptation of the Tennessee Williams masterpiece, performs the signature aria, "I Want Magic," from the recording of the same name. That and much more, Friday afternoon!
You can hear Foley Schuler's musical selections—and stories behind the music—every weekday afternoon from 1 until 4 on Blue Lake Public Radio.
