It would have been Mozart's 250th birthday this January. Even though he didn't live that long, his music has. Tonight's performance, featuring all kinds of artists from the Philadelphia area, is a tribute and a re-examination of Wolfgang Amadeus. Four composers will premiere new work based on Mozart's opera The Magic Flute.
Did you know any of tonight's performers? Are you a Mozart fan who wanted to see new interpretations of his music? or, are you a new music fan? What did you think of the show? Does tonight's show make you want to order this t-shirt?
WOW - what a unique and fresh look at Mozart's works. It brings a new respect for the man and what he created.
Wow!!! The University of Delaware Steelband was incredible! I'll be watching for more performances at the Kimmel Center by this group!
Fantastic program, I think Mozart would have loved it!
I heard this is going to be aired on WRTI soon.
Can you tell me when? I'd love to hear it again, esp the Steel Drum Band from Delaware!
