Harty's Violin Concerto

Though he is remembered primarily as a conductor, Sir Hamilton Harty's compositions won him many accolades and established his reputation in London before the age of 30. Today we hear his Violin Concerto in D-minor performed by Ralph Holmes and the Ulster Orchestra. Bryden Thomson directs. 

Mark Munger first began listening to public radio as a child in the back of his Mom's VW Vanagon, falling in love with the stories on Morning Edition and Prairie Home Companion and the laughter of Click and Clack on Car Talk. Through KWIT, he was introduced to the great orchestras and jazz artists, the sounds of folk and blues, and the eclectic expressions of humanity. This American Life and Radiolab arrived in his formative college years and made him want nothing more than to be a part of the public radio world.
