We explore the creepier side of the Classical Music world on today's show followed by all things organ by Bach in Bach Hour.
One piece I wish I could have played for you in today's show is a piece by André Caplet titled ""Conte Fantastique (The Masque of Red Death)" d'après Poe pour harpe à pedales et quatour à cordes. It is a fantastic piece (who doesn't love a creepy harp. It's something that you don't come across very often.)
Enjoy your night of horrors everyone!
