Good morning, Marvin and other listeners

Good morning and welcome to Classical Discoveries!

Today we are featuring early music for Christmas!

Greetings and Good Morning to Marvin, Rob MD and all Listeners

Early music for early risers

And good morning Patrick

Good thing my days of cassette taping Marvin’s show are over.I would need a whole case of tapes this month

Ha Ha, Patrick!! I actually think I have some old cassettes of my shows! Maybe I have some 8-tracks also! LOL

I think I still have the tape of the zither music show

Good Morning, Marvin, I have just clicked in. Happy to have you in my digiteria. I hope you have a great show.

Marvin, I want to suggest to John Schaefer that if he wants to hear that which some very smart people are listening, he click in at WPRB. If I do that, may I use your name and school?

Sorry, I should have identified John. He runs the "New Sounds" website at WQXR in New York City.

Thank you all so much for joining me today for Classical Discoveries! Have a great day and weekend!!

Thank you, Mr Rosen, it’s been a really lovely show.

Looking forward to part 2!
