Back on here just to tag @TheTNHoller after hearing them name check TWICE by @HC_Richardson on Make Me Smart (@Marketplace) this AM in a “what’s next” conversation.

Every month I’ve been rounding up my favorite newly released #classicalmusic tracks in my newsletter. September’s collection includes picks from @BerlinPhil, @BMOPmusic, @deccaclassics, and more. Link ⬇️

There's a lot to say about with Kentucky's plan to create nearly 600 new homes on former mountaintop removal sites -- so much that it took three stories to get all the voices and perspectives in there. 🧵
What’s up Saint-Saëns?
Danse Macabre! Is this the darkest opening ceremony ever? #Paris2024
