Every weekday at 10 a.m., the hosts at Classical MPR play a standout work based on the theme for the week. We call these works Morning Glories.
Join us as we celebrate the artistry of Sharon Isbin — Minnesota native, and master of the classical guitar. Her path as a musician has taken her from standards of the guitar repertoire, to folk-inspired music from many countries, to collaborations with noted performers from jazz and rock. She's also recorded extensively, and five of her albums have now been reissued as a box set, which we'll sample all week on Morning Glories.
