About
This week, From the Top returns to Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan. You’ll hear some of the school’s top student musicians, including a teenage ensemble performing a movement from Mozart’s Oboe Quartet and an 18-year-old saxophonist performing a piece by Eugene Bozza. You’ll also meet two talented clarinetists who have inspired a dubious new TV series called “Two Peas in a Pod.”
