What's New: Bruch Off!

WBAA | By John Clare

I love it when there are several new releases of the same work – you not only get to listen to new performances but compare them to other bench marks.

We’ll hear interpretations from Rachel Barton Pine and Joshua Bell playing the same Bruch violin concerto on this episode of What’s New.

Bell performs at Ravinia on Thursday, July 12th, and at IU on Friday, July 13th. Connect with us on Facebook here.

What’s New is a production of WBAA, a listener supported broadcast service of Purdue University.
