Be on the listen for Houston Music Highlights, Tuesday through Friday on Classical 91.7! These 6-minute highlights feature local musicians and ensembles such as the Houston Symphony, the Apollo Chamber Players, and numerous others each week. Houston Music Highlights air at 7 AM, and then repeat at 1 PM, 6 PM, and 10 PM.
This week, you'll hear Renaissance tunes sung by the award-winning male vocal ensemble Chanticleer, a piano suite meant to evoke the guitar played by actual guitars, a classical flute sonata presented by Context, and a track from Da Camera and Houston Chamber Choir's latest release on the ECM New Series label!
