ECP safely transported to Boston, Massachusetts, where the next week of shows will be recorded. Despite technical difficulties and a snow 'event,' nothing stops us from celebrating the first full week of spring! First up: The spring songs of Tchaikovsky Op. 54: 16 Songs for Children. Pardon any and all pronunciation mistakes. Special thanks to Emily Ezust, www.lieder.net, for translation permissions. We hope to get the sounds right for tomorrow, but, enjoy the beautiful music!
