Spotlight on: Tania Eshaghoff

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
This evening, David is joined by pianist and composer Tania Eshaghoff to talk about Persian music. A native of Tehran, her music is distinguished by an elegant melting of traditional Persian culture with that of the modern western world.

Also tonight: music from the father and son team of Johann Sebastian and C.P.E. Bach. Eugene Ormandy leads the Philadelphia Orchestra in C.P.E.'s Sinfonia for Double Orchestra; we'll hear Elder Bach's only work for four solo harpsichords and orchestra, the Concerto in A Minor (Trevor Pinnock conducts the English Concert).
