Classical Music Works of the Week
Classical Music Works of the Week is similar to Oprah's book club. I introduce all kinds of classical music - forgotten works, new works, popular works, etc., each week. It is my hope to expose you to great music. Afterwards, you can post you thoughts and opinions of the work on the Classical Music Forum.
