FUNDER TRANSCRIPT
"Some people use classical music as an escape from everyday reality. But the fact is... classical music is reality. The genius of composers like Mozart is they can express their feelings through music, and they can also give expression to ours. That's one of the reasons I love classical music. I'm pianist Jonathan Biss. Please support classical music by contributing to your Public Radio station. Thank you."
