The Birth of New Music

Vienna was quite the place to be if you were a musician in the eighteenth century. Composers like Hayden, Mozart, Beethoven and others were creating a new sound that would forever change the face of Western Music. This weekend, the Concord Chorale and the Granite State Symphony Orchestra are teaming up for a concert that pays tribute to the great composers of Austria. We’ll preview the show with the groups' directors, and we’ll find out what it was about Vienna that brought this sound together.

Our guests are:

Ryan Turner, director of the Concord Chorale.

Robert Babb, music director of the Granite State Symphony Orchestra.
