Suzanne Bona, creator and host of the nationally syndicated “Sunday Baroque” radio program, collaborates with La Follia to celebrate KMFA’s 50th anniversary.

In this April Fool’s special, we perform beautiful, often very famous works, which are either completely misattributed or forgeries.  It’s a concert of great fun, with Suzanne personally engaging the audience. This concert also features the incomparable Liz Cass, Austin mezzo-soprano.

Can you spot the fakes?

1. Perhaps the most famous piece for pipe organ

2. The orchestral pieces arranged by Stravinsky in Pulcinella

3. A famous adagio for organ and strings

4. Perhaps the most famous Baroque opera aria ever

In addition, La Follia will perform music by composers whose true identities will astonish you.

In this concert, you can be certain of nothing… except great music, hosted by a national star, celebrating one of the best classical music radio stations in the USA.
