“On That Note,” with Cellist Robert Cohen and Bonnie North of Lake
Effect on WUWM, has become a regular program on Milwaukee Public Radio
late in the morning on the first Monday of each month. WUWM has
created this new series for Robert and Bonnie to chat about music
and related topics throughout the year to include occasional live or
recorded musical examples. These will also be available for listening
on the internet and downloading as a podcast. Additionally, the Fine
Arts Quartet is to come to the WUWM studios to record some music and
chat for broadcast in advance of each of the Quartet’s UWM Zelazo
concerts.
