The organ music of Dan Locklair will be the focus of American Public Media’s Pipedreams radio program for the week of September 30.
The two-hour Unlocking Locklair program is hosted by Michael Barone and will present 7 of the composer’s major works, including the first national broadcast of his Concerto for Organ and Orchestra (2010) in a performance by the Eastern Festival Orchestra, Gerard Schwarz, conductor, with soloist Susan Bates.
Other works on the program are the broadcast premieres of O Festive Day and Trumpets of Light, along with Sonata da Chiesa, Anthem: The Lone Wild Bird, Ayre for the Dance, In Mystery and Wonder and Phoenix Processional.
The program will be broadcast nationally on APM-affiliated stations beginning September 30. Check your local listings for broadcast times in your area.
The show will also be available for listening at the Pipedreams website after September 30.
Celebrating more than thirty years on the air, Pipedreams is the only weekly radio program that explores the full range of the art and potential of the pipe organ.
