WCPE Celebrates Mahler

Wake Forest, N.C. (Vocus) July 6, 2010

WCPE Music Director William Woltz announces a celebration of the 150th anniversary of Gustav Mahlers birth. The three day event starts with Symphony no. 1 (Titan) on July 5 on Monday Night at the Symphony and continues with Symphony no. 5 on July 6. The conclusion coincides with his birthday, July 7, and a performance of Symphony no. 9.


The music of Gustav Mahler is an acquired taste, says Woltz. For some people his music seems coarse, he continues. His work reflects his brief life, adds Woltz.Which was a series of crises and triumphs.


WCPEs 24/7 live broadcast of Great Classical Music, 24 Hours A Day can be accessed around the globe in several ways; on-line streaming in multiple formats, including IPv6, small dish home satellite reception, local cable television systems and traditional radio broadcasting. A complete list of the ways WCPE is available with instructions for cable and satellite reception can be found at: http://theclassicalstation.org/listen.shtml.
