The Philadelphia Orchestra in Concert
SUNDAY, 1 TO 3 PM ON WRTI-FM; MONDAY, 7 TO 9 PM ON WRTI HD-2
Join us on Sunday afternoons and Monday evenings to hear The Philadelphia Orchestra, led my Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin, in live, recorded concerts from Verizon Hall at the Kimmel Center.
The ensemble has a long and venerable history of radio broadcasts, as the first orchestra with its own commercially sponsored national radio series, beginning in 1929 on NBC. This weekly series of radio broadcasts marks the return of the Orchestra to the airwaves. WRTI's Gregg Whiteside is host.
