Fred Flaxman presents particularly interesting, exciting and unusual endings of classical music pieces. These include the final moments of Mahler's "Song of Lament" and his "Symphony No. 6," Malcolm Arnold's "A Grand, Grand Overture," Stravinsky's "The Rite of Spring," Dvorak's "Symphony No. 9," Rachmaninov's "Piano Concerto No. 2" and his "Variations on a Theme by Paganini," Ives' "Symphony No. 2," and Poulenc's "Dialogues of the Carmelites." This program was originally distributed nationally by the WFMT Radio Network in 2003. Its re-editing and re-release in 2007 is made possible by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and the PRX Reversioning Project. Although it may be broadcast at any time, its title makes transmission particularly appropriate as the last "Compact Discoveries" program at the end of the year.
