11/19/10 3:00PM
This afternoon we'll listen to portions of the incredible Requiem of Maurice
Durufle. It can be heard live this weekend in Burlington with the Burlington Choral Society
led by Dr. David Neiweem. I'm in the group, and today I'll speak with
Dr. Neiweem about the work and its special place in 20th century music.
