A Tempo this week (3/14) explores the theme of next performance in Princeton University Concerts' Music and Healing Series.

There are many celebrations in the month of March such as National Noodle Month, National Flour Month, and National Frozen Food Month. However, we like to celebrate another aspect of March as National Women’s History Month. With that said, this week’s Dress Circle (3/15 7:00 p.m.) is dedicated to fourteen of the women who have composed scores for some on and off-Broadway musicals.

Join WWFM for a live concert broadcast March 9 at 7 pm at Trinity Church Princeton, 33 Mercer Street. In honor of Bach Month Rob Kapilow and the Sebastian Chamber Players will perform an audience favorite, JS Bach's Double Violin Concerto in d minor.

Matthew Robertson leads his ensemble The Thirteen in performances recorded last year of the setting of the Catholic Mass by Johann Sebastian Bach.

A Tempo continues its look at ensemble's tributes to the American Semiquincentennial with a spotlight on the American Composers Orchestra.

An 85th birthday celebration this Friday (3/6, rebroadcast Saturday 3/7)

So much is being said about cross-dressing and drag now that we thought we’d take a look at how musicals have looked at this aspect of theatre on this week’s Dress Circle (4/16 7:00 p.m.). Men portraying women on stage were a major part of Greek and Roman theatre as well as early European theatre mainly because women weren’t allowed to appear on stage. However, once that taboo was overturned, women often portrayed men, especially in operas and British Pantomimes.

Members of the Philadelphia-based ensemble lead us through the diverse menagerie of instruments on which they perform in this broadcast Monday (3/2 at 8 pm), with an encore Saturday (3/7 at 2 pm).

Ryan Brandau focuses on two works, one inspired bu the other and composed two centuries apart- music of Dietrich Buxtehude & Caroline Shaw.
