Blanche Moyse passed away at the age of 101. Today we’ll celebrate her
musical legacy and honor her memory with recordings of her violin
playing and conducting. Also today, we’ll hear about a concert in
Burlington this weekend that features Mendelssohn, and we’ll hear
Martha Argerich and friends playing Schumann’s Piano Quintet.
