Classical Music with Janine Miller

The seeds were sown early for Janine (Kallgren) Miller's career in radio. She was born in Palo Alto, California but began her schooling here in Phoenix. Her report cards were mostly A's but often included the comment, "talks too much to her neighbors"! Janine would spend hours each day listening to LP's and quizzing herself on the composers and classical works that she heard.

Why Beethoven Threw the Stew

KBAQ's Randy Kinkel recommends "Why Beethoven Threw the Stew". A funny and factual guide to the lives, quirks and foibles of six of the great composers of classical music, written by Master Cellist Steven Isserlis. Written for kids, but in a way that adults can also enjoy and learn from, it's the KBAQ book of the month for June. Great for reading aloud!
