Since I work on Saturday mornings (ahh, the "glamorous" world of retail), I am unable to listen to Introductions at the the time that it airs. Are the programs archived on the WFMT website for future download and/or streaming MP3 listening?

Thank you very much,

The head of the Music Department at the Lab School, Brad Brickner, sent an email to me and several other music students asking us to submit audition materials. He gave us the link in his email. I gave Brad my audition CD and solo application today, but I don't know when he will send it in to you. It has The Bee on it since that is what I played at Lab Recital Night on March 4.
