On November 9, Kapilow joined forces with the Pacifica Quartet during its Chicago-based Beethoven Festival at the Music Institute, demonstrating and discussing the composer’s revolutionary string quartets. This marks Kapilow’s first What Makes It Great?© presentation in Chicago, and the city’s radio station, WFMT, was on hand to record it. The event was broadcast on WFMT and WFMT.com on Monday, February 18, from 8-10 pm CST. It can be heard by national and international listeners on WFMT’s free stream (www.wfmt.com).
Rob Kapilow takes his What Makes It Great?© to Washington DC for the first time, adding our nation’s capital to the list of cities where the classical music guru is at large. Washington Performing Arts Society and the Smithsonian Associates present Kapilow in two concerts: February 13 and March 25 at the Smithsonian.
