PROGRAM
Jon Kimura Parker
Generous Spirit: Great classical music weaves its spell on multiple layers at once, and it's the rare artist who animates both its particulars and its larger expanses with equal aplomb. This week on Saint Paul Sunday, host Bill McGlaughlin welcomes renowned Canadian pianist Jon Kimura Parker for a joyous Beethoven sonata, Maurice Ravel's quietly revolutionary "Jeux d'Eau," and a stunning new fantasy on Harold Arlen's music for the "Wizard of Oz" composed for Mr. Parker himself.
MUSIC PLAYED IN THE PROGRAM
- Ludwig van Beethoven: Sonata in C major, Op. 2, No. 3
- Maurice Ravel: Jeux d’Eau
- Harold Arlen (arr. William Hirtz): Fantasy on "Wizard of Oz"
