The Washington Monument
Terrance McKnight brings you Evening Music live from Washington, DC, where he's been following the inaugural festivities since Saturday. We hear his personal observations, as well as a wide range of music inspired by today's historic events (including President Obama's own favorite music). Then, stay tuned for a special rebroadcast of "A Beautiful Symphony of Brotherhood: A Musical Journey in the Life of Martin Luther King, Jr." at 10PM on 93.9FM.

Marvin Gaye! What' Goin' On! One of my favorites too. The "A" side of that album is one of the brilliant musical expressions of the era.
Marvin Gaye lyric: "Only love can conquer hate."
nooooo don't play Garrison Keiller again!
my first time listening while online. I was hoping for a listing of the music being currently played ala WFMU. Maybe soon T?
Thank you, Terrance, for opening the program with the John Williams inaugural piece, and keeping us connected with the spirit of this historic, wonderful day!
That was the wrong Writer's Almanac! Has somebody forgotten that it's January 20, the day we got a new president?
Oh, they played the whole suite suite? (I just heard up to the allemande)
What was that piece after the Bach cello prelude? It had vocals in it--lots of very small intervals. It sounded like Steve Reich.
what was the Bach piece that was just on?
