WQXR Presents Midday Masterpieces
Originally Aired: Wednesday, February 7, 2018
Take a respite from your busy work day with a free concert presented by WQXR.
Every first Wednesday of the month, hear rising stars from The Juilliard School perform selections from classical music’s best-loved composers. Leave the emails, phone calls and work behind and settle in for an hour of musical serenity.
February’s concert features students from Juilliard’s Vocal Arts program performing art songs of love and romance in honor of Valentine’s Day.
