Under a Rest Podcast

A podcast about events from this week in Classical Music History. Also bad music jokes.

Whatever holidays you celebrate, we wish you happiness and wonderful music. -Jon and Tina

[Under a Rest Podcast @UnderARestPod]

We’ve decided to bring relief to our listeners everywhere with two mini stocking-stuffer episodes featuring holiday tunes that we think are majorly underrated. We’ve also created a holiday playlist a bit more off the beaten path. Watch for those on iTunes Monday morning

[Under a Rest Podcast @UnderARestPod]

We’re sure you’re as sick of overplayed holiday songs as we are. We’ll scream if we hear yet another cover of Last Christmas played over the loud speaker at the grocery store. But we’re not ready to give up on musical holiday cheer just yet, either.

Dr. Franz Mesmer, 12 year old Mozart, and the philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau are just a few of the characters who make an appearance in this week's episode. #MusicHistory #Podcasting https://t.co/LaNOJFB3Hz

Ep. 20 - Bastien und Bastienne will be out later tonight.
Until then, here's a playlist of music written by 12 year-old Mozart.
Enjoy (and try not to feel too down on yourself for not accomplishing as much when you were 12...) #MusicHIstory #podcasting

[BBC Music Magazine @MusicMagazine]

May we all recover from our mishaps with as much grace and sass as Bernstein.

[Under a Rest Podcast @UnderARestPod]

We apologize for the static noise in this week's episode. We'd like to think that the ghost of Leonard Bernstein paid us a visit as we were recording. #podcasting #Bernsteinat100 https://t.co/LaNOJFB3Hz
