As we eagerly anticipate the Pigeon Creek Shakepeare Company's return to the Blue Lake's Rose Theatre for a special benefit performance of The Tempest, we'll enjoy music inspired by the Bard's profound final meditation on revenge, forgiveness, illusion, and freedom—and some would say, on the the theater itself—with Tempest-inspired works by Purcell, Beethoven, John Knowles Paine, and Arthur Sullivan, as well as from such diverse film interpretations as Prospero's Books (music by Michael Nyman) and the sci-fi classic Forbidden Planet (music by Louis and Bebe Barron). That and much more, on Thursday afternoon's Classical Music With Foley Schuler.
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.
