Unearthing Gems
Conductor JoAnn Falletta is unusually good at bringing hidden treasure to light. Recently, she unearthed a beautiful symphony by Marcel Tyberg, a victim of the Nazi concentration camps. On today's show, we hear a rarely-heard work, Joseph Marx's "Symphonic Night Music," performed by JoAnn Falletta and the Buffalo Philharmonic. Also, part three of our "Music That Matters" feature on the Reverie Harp.
