Moon, Planets & Stars
on Saturday Matinee

As always, the contents of Saturday Matinee are too varied to list, but we can tell you about one portion: A just-released recording of a concert by the Vienna Philharmonic in that city's Schönbrunn Palace, one with a celestial theme that includes performances of music from Star Wars by John Williams, Music of the Spheres by Josef Strauss, and Mars from Gustav Holst's The Planets. Franz Welser-Möst conducts, and Ed Goldberg hosts.

There's bound to be more, since with Saturday Matinee the sky is definitely not the limit. Program airs Sept. 4 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

LISTENER FEEDBACK 

Matt in Vancouver, WA, said:

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for playing such a great piece tonight. Sometimes I feel as though I hear violin concertos, violin sonatas and piano concertos one after another when I want something with a more bombastic yet beautiful feel to it. Shostakovich 10 did the trick tonight. A great performance to boot. Thank you for playing this massive piece for me this fine evening.
