December 31: New Year's Eve or New Year's Day
Compact Discoveries Program 29: "Variations on Very Familiar Tunes"
Although this program is an evergreen and can be used at any time of the year, it is particularly appropriate around New Year's Eve due to its inclusion of "Variations on Auld Lang Syne" by Franz Waxman.
Host Fred Flaxman also brings you "Happy Birthday Variations" by Peter Heidrich, "Variations on a Nursery Song" ("Twinkle Twinkle Little Star") by Ernst von Dohn?nyi, and "McMozart's Eine Kleine Bricht Moonlicht Musik" by Teddy Bor.
