Annees de Pelerinage

Liszt's Annees de Pelerinage brings us to the very heights of romanticism: Man as made of experience. We survive alpine storms and dip into cool tarns, our hearts are filled and broken, life is lived and shaped by the living. Today we hear this masterwork performed by Zoltan Kocsis.

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.
