IHTSB Mar 26, 2023
This week marked the first day of Spring for 2023 — at least according to the calendar, if not perhaps the weather! Our show today salutes our transition to this lovely season, even if only in anticipation so far, and we celebrate it with some delightful songs from the great songwriters. Our recordings today are taken from the 1930s through to the 1950s, and our excellent singers and musicians bring us their interpretations of these classic tunes. Enjoy our celebration of Spring in song!
