From the Top – LIVE
November 2, 2019 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
From the Top presents the amazing performances and captivating personalities of extraordinary young classical musicians from across the country.
The 90-minute show, recorded for future broadcast, features virtuosic performances and entertaining interviews with young soloists and/or ensembles. Young performers share their passion for classical music, and speak about their non-musical lives.
Broadcast on more than 220 stations nationwide to an audience of more than half a million listeners, From the Top is considered the most popular weekly one-hour music program on public radio.
A celebration of great music and great kids, From the Top appeals to diverse audiences, but is especially recommended for ages 7 and up.
“An entertaining, accessible and often inspirational mix of outstanding musical performances, informal interviews, skits and games, the show is a celebration of extraordinary musicians who happen to be teenagers leading fairly normal lives.” The Boston Globe
“From the Top gives young musicians the stage but lets them act their age. It’s serious music but classically kids.” The New York Times
“From the Top gives promising teenagers the chance to show their musical chops while demonstrating that they’re funny and cool.” The Washington Post
