Celebrating 100 Episodes of the Local Artist Feature
There’s just something in the water here. Northern California is home to an amazing array of talented Classical artists who regularly light up international stages. From performers to composers, Sacramento is practically overflowing with talent and it can be a lot to keep track of. That’s where CapRadio’s Jennifer Reason comes in. Every Friday at noon (and 6 p.m.) on the Classical station she hosts a different artist from the area and explores their work through song and conversation.
In honor of the 100th episode, we recorded a live concert at CapRadio featuring both Classical and Jazz musicians, to celebrate the richness and diversity of the talent in the region, which is reflected in CapRadio’s programming.
