Will Geer Theatricum

Glenn Gould makes the ivories sing. 15th century organ music whispers the message of angels. A Mozart sonata sounds new again. Such are the wonders of Keyboard Classics. Spotlighting music made by every keyboard instrument in every combination - from subtle solos to grand concerti, the show is an eclectic mix of music that stirs the soul. Host Alan Caro brings listeners a marvelous array of music that includes everything from Prokofiev to Gershwin, twentieth century newcomers to ancient treasures, and from little-known gems to beloved standards. Playing from his personal collection as well as KCSN's bountiful library, Caro loves to discover new works as well as new recordings of ageless classics and pass them on. "It's good to be open," Caro says. So listen and discover new ways to love old favorites and new performances destined to take hold of your heart…for the repertoire of the keyboard is endless and its appeal knows no bounds. TUESDAYS, 7-9 P.M.

Alan Caro

When Alan Caro was living in London, he heard a 1950 recording of the pianist Dinu Lipatti playing Mozart's Piano Sonata K310 and was bowled over. "I want to do that!" Alan shouted, creating an admirable crescendo of his own. That one recording inspired him to learn how to play the piano and to go as far as to build a clavichord and a harpsichord. Not an easy task. He began hosting Keyboard Classics in 1997, after being a KCSN on-air sub as well as a guardian angel of sorts. When KCSN was hit by the Northridge quake in 1994, Alan donated equipment and his time, helping to make a challenging situation a lot easier. He was an on-air sub for about six months until he thought of an idea for a show and Keyboard Classics was born.
