Episode 86: Christmas Tree Suite
/

One of the things I love about doing this podcast is that I often uncover music that is new-to-me — a piece or a composer that I never have heard about, despite minoring in music in college and playing classical piano for most of my life. The episode I put together today is an example of one such “new-to-me” piece — an unexpectedly gentle and surprisingly accessible collection of piano songs by Franz Liszt: Christmas Tree Suite.
