12:00 FROM THE TOP with America's finest young musicians; recorded April 14, 2025
We're celebrating Earth Day with performances that celebrate our natural world. Up first, a young oboist performs a piece inspired by Georgia O'Keeffe's paintings of jimson weed and speaks about volunteering in a community garden. We also meet a teen pianist who performs Tan Dun's colorful homage to the Chinese countryside and a composer who connects with nature through the study of insects and shares a work inspired by the Salt Creek Tiger Beetle. We're paying homage to our beautiful planet and the works of art it inspires! A teen harpist from rural California performs Gary Schocker's Memory of Trees, a contemplation on the effects of climate change. Finally, a 17-year-old cellist plays The Swan and speaks of her work in environmental advocacy.

13:00 ROBERT K. JOHNSON FOUNDATION METROPOLITAN OPERA RADIO NETWORK with Debra Lew Harder
The Metropolitan Opera’s 2024-25 season continues with a 1975 performance of Rossini’s L’Assedio di Corinto – The Siege of Corinth – in honor of the 50th anniversary of Beverly Sills’s Met debut. The great American diva made history when she finally appeared on the Met stage, and she chose this bel canto rarity for the occasion. This broadcast showcases Sills as Pamira, a Corinthian woman who has fallen in love with an enemy of her people. The cast also features bass-baritone Justino Díaz as Pamira’s beloved Maometto, leader of the Turks; mezzo-soprano Shirley Verrett as his rival, the Greek warrior Neocle; and tenor Harry Theyard as Pamira’s father Cleomene, governor of Corinth. Thomas Schippers conducts the Met Orchestra and Chorus.
