Ziporyn who released his landmark Cantaloupe Music recording; ‘This Is Not a Clarinet’ in 2001, does the impossible on Pop Channel, taking us through some of the best iconic pop songs during the last 5 decades, imagined through a compendium of clarinets and all arranged, layered, and performed by Ziporyn. Every sound on this album – the lead vocals, guitar solos, backing horns, and even the drum parts - is played by Ziporyn, on a clarinet of one size or another.Purchase the music (without talk) at:Pop Channel (classicalsavings.com)Your purchase helps to support our show! Classical Music Discoveries is sponsored by La Musica International Chamber Music Festival and Uber. @khedgecock#ClassicalMusicDiscoveries #KeepClassicalMusicAlive#LaMusicaFestival #CMDGrandOperaCompanyofVenice #CMDParisPhilharmonicinOrléans#CMDGermanOperaCompanyofBerlin#CMDGrandOperaCompanyofBarcelonaSpain#ClassicalMusicLivesOn#Uber Please consider supporting our show, thank you!http://www.classicalsavings.com/donate.html staff@classicalmusicdiscoveries.com This album is broadcasted with the permission of Crossover Media Music Promotion (Zachary Swanson).

There's a whole world of classical music waiting beyond the handful of famous pieces played on the radio. Classical Music Discoveries is built on the idea that the repertoire is vast, deep, and full of stunning works that rarely get a hearing. Each episode is a curated listening session, focusing on compositions from across the centuries that deserve a wider audience. You might hear a powerful symphony by a forgotten Romantic-era composer, a delicate chamber piece from the Baroque, or a compelling work from a living creator. The host provides just enough context to frame the music-perhaps a note on the historical period, the composer's unique story, or what makes the structure of the piece so engaging-before letting the recordings speak for themselves. It’s a quiet space to actively listen, whether you're a seasoned concert-goer or someone just beginning to explore beyond the classics. This podcast serves as an accessible guide, removing the intimidation factor and replacing it with a sense of genuine exploration. The focus remains firmly on the sound, offering a direct connection to the emotional and intellectual power of the works selected. Tune in to expand your personal playlist with beautiful and intriguing music you simply won't find in the standard rotation.
