Midday Music Playlist for 08/07/2012
Today we honor three musicians who have left us in the past week: violinist Ruggiero Ricci, pianist Mihaela Ursuleasa and composer Marvin Hamlisch. We also hear the Mozart sonata that includes the Rondo alla Turca, the pas de deux from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker and Villa-Lobos as played by Pepe Romero.
