Coming up at 6pm weekdays, on Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin: It Takes Two to Tango 💃🕺 Bill starts by sharing tunes with two musical lines, where one line goes up while the other goes down to create a counter melody, then to complex sonatas like Beethoven’s Kreutzer Sonata for violin and piano. This week will feature remarkable performances of musicians working in tandem playing Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart. We’ll also savor the great love duets of Verdi, Puccini, and Wagner. Oh, don’t miss the meowing cat duets of Rossini and Ravel.
