WMRA News (tw)

"Air Play" is WMRA's own round-up of classical music recorded right around here.  We'll hear the Oratorio Society of Virginia and JMU chamber, orchestral and choral groups (including music from Brahms’ German Requiem), all of which have concerts in the next two weeks.  Also, taking the long view, a look ahead to the Shenandoah Valley Bach Festival.
