Holidays

Suzy Klein explores music with holiday connections, including Chopin, Glass, Elgar and Duke Ellington. Plus a gig guide, a new release, concert reviews and an archive recording.

It's the height of the holiday season, so today Suzy Klein chooses some music with holiday connections. Along the way she bumps into Chopin in Majorca, Einstein on the beach, Elgar in the south, and Duke Ellington in the far east.
Along with our weekly gig guide and this week's new release, Mark Swartzentruber unearths another vintage recording from the archive; and we'll hear about the concerts you've enjoyed this week.

Join Suzy for the perfect soundtrack to your Sunday morning.
