Opera Pass
This Saturday, All Classical broadcasts another matinee from the Metropolitan Opera, Donizetti's Anna Bolena. Did you know that Portland Opera General Director Christopher Mattaliano also offers his take on each musical drama thirty minutes before performance? For all the background, nuance, tradition and buzz on every opera, listen in this Saturday, Feb. 4, at 9:30 a.m. and then tune in to the opera at 10 a.m.
Don't Give
This a Pass
For the next edition of The Score – and just in time for the Super Bowl – host Edmund Stone has diagrammed some playtime that you won't be able to resist: Music from films set against the milieu of football. We'll hear excerpts from Rudy, Remember the Titans, Brian's Song and more. The program airs at 2 p.m. on Saturday, February 4.
And, as always, remember that listening isn't the most important thing; it's the only thing.
Lux Aeterna
Nothing is more important to life on earth than light, and so it’s no surprise that composers have been shedding light on that subject for a very long time. We’ll hear some recent examples on Club Mod this Saturday, Feb. 4, when host Robert McBride plays music by Brian Johanson, Morten Lauridsen, Philip Glass and others.
Lighten your Saturday evening from 8 to 10 p.m.
Super Bach Sunday
Join the Bach Cantata Choir at 2 on Sunday, Feb. 5, for a program featuring Bach's Cantata No. 11, "Ascension Oratorio," Telemann's Viola Concerto in G Major with Karen Vincent and Sweelinck's Laudate Dominum. Also on the program is the Cantata, Es erhub sich ein Streit by Johann Christoph Bach. Admission is free. The performance takes place at Rose City Park Presbyterian Church, 1907 NE 45th, Portland, 97213.

Jackiw Plays Bruch
Brilliant young violinist Stefan Jackiw graces the Oregon Symphony concert stage the evenings of Feb. 4 and 6 to play the four movement Scottish Fantasy by Max Bruch. "Talent that's off the scale," is The Washington Post's recent description of the youthful star. Gregory Vajda conducts an evening of other favorites including the Suite on English Folk tunes by Britten, Beethoven's Symphony No. 4 and Brahms Academic Festival Overture.

Thank you so much for your generous gift of two tickets to Oregon Symphony’s Haydn Creation concert on Sunday night. My guest and I were overwhelmed to enjoy front row center seats and, days later, we’re still affected by the outstanding performance of those gifted masters. I have channeled my passions into a poem, which is my way of processing great emotional events in life. --Sincerely, Ed, Hillsboro
We enjoy listening to the station and joined as members recently. In December we visited our daughter who was studying in Ferrara, Italy. We greatly enjoyed spending Christmas in Italy. But, we did keep one foot back in Portland. Each day we played the station using the internet, and your music filled our apartment. We were particularly glad to be able to enjoy the Festival of Carols, despite being so far away. --Steve, Portland
Thank you very much for playing the Tannhauser Overture today. My husband and I are recent Wagnerphiles, and all classical is the only station we listen to (new members this year). It is wonderful to hear Wagner outside of the opera program. Thank you so much for enriching the community in such an important way! --Jennifer, Portland
