A little Bob Marley, Leonard Cohen, Oscar Peterson and of course classical music on this weekend's journey.

It's March! Getting closer to the first day of spring, and the weather has been fantastic over the last number of days. Can't wait to shed the coat, hat, gloves and start wearing some lighter clothes. It's never too early to start celebrating!

It's going to be a fun show this weekend, as we celebrate two hours of composers born in March; one hour of marches; complete works by Handel, Tartini & Bach;  and some cool interpretations of music by Pachelbel, Mozart and more.

And, if that was not enough, I am playing some tracks from two great new CDs: cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason and a fantastic collaboration between Welsh classical harpist Catrin Finch & Senegalese kora player Seckou Keita.    I am really excited to share this amazing, spirited music.

 

Below you will find a couple videos from these CDs:

 

 

 

and here is one more work you will hear if you tune into The Wide World of Classical Music this weekend:
