Classical Performance - Podcast Rankings and reviews

For those that don't want to hear the talking at the beginning of a podcast, here is how to bypass it: right-mouse click on the podcast after downloading it, click on "get info," and then click the "options" tab. Change the start time to reflect when the music actually starts. This also works for getting rid of anything at the end of the podcast, just change the end time to cut off any unwanted talking. This change will transfer to the iPod and start the "show" right where you want it. I picked this up from another podcast listener and found it most helpful. I hope this helps you enjoy the music more.

This podcast is terrific! I always find Alan's intros insightful, though I usually use the "Start at __.__" function to skip it after I've heard it once. I've been introduced to many wonderful artists through these great, live recordings.

All of the music in this podcast is solid gold. It's like you get a free 1/2 CD every time they come out with a new podcast. You can cut the intro very easily by going into the Get Info window and setting the appropriate time options. Hooray for WGBH and free chamber music, we should all send them a donation

So great to find that this podcast was available again. I listened for a long time before it went on hiatus. Just what a classical podcast should be - focused on the music with pithy, helpful context offered.
