I hope you enjoyed K-BACH's "Love at First Listen" the week of April 20th.  We had so much fun sharing your stories about the music which first turned you into a classical music lover.  Lots of you were inspired by cartoons.  We even joked about having an entire day devoted to music from Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, and Popeye!  

Some of the musical organizations here in the Phoenix area will be ending their concert seasons in the next month or so.  I encourage you to go to as many concerts as you can before the hot months hit.  While many musicians typically cool off during the summer, you can usually find plenty of good plays and musicals at venues all over the Valley.  Our K-BACH theater critic, Chris Curcio, can help with his reviews throughout the year.  For those of you who like to travel for your theater experiences, Chris typically reviews the theater scene that he experiences in New York.  And you can sometimes hear Chris talk about the theater world in other places too, such as London.  Don't forget that you can always find wonderful (and often air-conditioned!) things to do, whether arts-related, family-friendly, museums, and more at our website, www.kbach.org/events.  If you click on the actual event, you'll find all of the details you need, including the organizations' phone numbers, websites, and even maps!

At K-BACH, we're proud to be at the Heart of the Arts in the Valley of the Sun.  We are YOUR station, and, no matter how hot it gets, you can cool down with classical music night and day on your radio at 89.5 FM, online at kbach.org or with the K-BACH mobile app.

Speaking of cool, thanks SO much to the "cool people" who have made the transition from listeners to active supporting members, keeping classical music alive and on the air for all of us here in the Valley and across the globe.  We simply couldn't be here without you!  Thank you, awesome members of K-BACH!

With warm (and cool) wishes,
