Beginning at around 8 AM, ‘Towe on Thursday’ on October 15, 2009, will feature a memorial tribute to the artistry of the late, great Louis Rosenblatt, principal English horn player in the Philadelphia Orchestra for more than 30 years.  My special guest will be Mr. Rosenblatt’s son, Bill.

Some of Louis Rosenblatt’s greatest recordings, including Sibelius’s ‘The Swan of Tuonela’, Dvorak’s ‘New World’ Symphony, and Rodrigo’s ‘Concierto de Aranjuez’ will be played.  Also privately made recordings, including LR’s solo debut with the Phildelphia Orchestra (Honegger’s ‘Concerto da camera’) will be aired.
