“We’re excited to share a variety of performances from our recent seasons with audiences near and far,” said Catherine Cochran, Executive Director of Shriver Hall Concert Series. “We’re excited to partner with WBJC on this wonderful series, especially during these times when we all need artistic comfort, uplift, and connection more than ever.”
“WBJC is absolutely thrilled to have the Shriver Hall Concert series back on the air in Baltimore and beyond,” said Jonathan Palevsky, WBJC’s Interim General Manager, Program Director, and Host of “Music in Maryland.” “Shriver Hall Concert Series has always brought the best of chamber music to Baltimore and we look forward to making these concerts available to our radio and streaming audience.
