We're exploring nostalgia this week: memories, emotions and classical music.
In this first episode with our cohost Betty, the focus is on childhood — a time of wonder, play and imagination. Schumann’s Kinderszenen (Scenes from Childhood), a suite of 13 short piano pieces that reflect the emotional world of a child.

Schumann: "Scenes from Childhood"
Bonis: Suite for Flute, Violin and Piano, Op. 59
Beach: "Children’s Carnival." Op.25
