WQXR Nutcracker Sweets
ADDENDUM: to listen on computer: If you're not in the NY area, you can listen on line if you go to the website and click on what's playing now in the right hand side, and then listen now. There will be a short message and then the program will start.
Starting this Monday, December 19, at 4:30 (and again the following morning) airing every day this week on WQXR 105.9 FM, I'll be doing a show with host Naomi Lewin on the history of sweets inspired by the Nutcracker Suite. Those of you who may know that I danced in George Ballanchine's Nutcracker when I was a little girl will know that this has special meaning to me. Tune in to hear about the fascinating history of the five sweets that are a part of the Nutcracker Suite. Cookie recipes representing each sweet, from Rose's Christmas Cookies, will be on the WQXR website starting on Monday.
