20 Pieces of Music That Changed The World



For those not aware of this great series presented by the CBC's Sunday Edition radio program, I would highly recommend checking this out. The program is hosted by Michael Enright with music expert Richard Harris. Each program highlights a specific piece of music and they discuss the cultural impact that each piece of music had during its time. Lots of great history there and I guarantee that you'll learn something.

Fortunately this is all available online and I believe that a CD boxset will soon be available.

Check it out on the CBC's Sunday Edition website here:

  1. Wow...what a GREAT series! Thanks for turning me on to this. As one South of the Border it's always nice to be hipped to what's going on up there. ;)
