Open Air - Thursday, December 8 at 1pm

Host Alan Farley talks with composer and conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen, who is leading the San Francisco Symphony this week in a program will include his violin concerto, and with musicologist Scott Fogelsong, who will play some rare archival recordings of the orchestra, on the day that marks the 100th anniversary of the symphony's first concert.

In Memoriam (1936-2012): KALW lost an important voice for the arts in the Bay Area, our senior announcer, Alan Farley, in October of 2012. Alan’s diagnosis and subsequent passing of pancreatic and liver cancer was sudden, and a shock to all of us here at KALW.
