The music is exultant on this week’s show, as host Steve Seel brings us John Adams’ Hallelujah Junction and we visit the 2024 BBC Proms Festival for a live recording of Wynton Marsalis’ Herald, Holler and Hallelujah. In the second hour, American composer Christopher Cerrone’s Violin Sonata is the result of the composer’s challenge to himself to do something completely original with that musical form. Listen now!
