The Sound of Peace

Next Monday marks the official anniversary of the treaty that ended the Russo-Japanese War. Music historian Rich Spicer has put together a program that highlights the songs that echoed through Portsmouth while negotiators worked out a peace deal. Rich joins us to explore the music of the day -- including those works written for and about the signing ceremonies. Rich is founder and director of Columbia's Musick: Echoes of the Early Republic. The group plays the music of early America.
