Giving Thanks: A Celebration of Fall, Food & Gratitude, 11/28/19, 8:00am
New for 2019, John Birge hosts a contemporary celebration of gratitude, with classical music and stories of Thanksgiving. This year's "Giving Thanks" also celebrates the Feast Day of St. Cecilia, the patron saint of music. Special guests include John Rutter, with a world premiere of his latest choral work, and conductor Nic McGegan, and offers a remembrance of former guest and U.S. Poet Laureate Donald Hall.

Thanksgiving with The American Sound: Let Us Break Bread Together, 11/28/19, 2:00p
A companion is, literally, someone with whom one breaks bread. On this holiday of family and feasting, Thanksgiving with The American Sound pays tribute in American music and meaningful stories to the time-honored tradition of breaking bread with others.

Every Good Thing, 11/28/19, 5:00p
Host Elena See shares stories from classical music fans across the country as together they celebrate one of life’s most meaningful gifts: music!

Thanksgiving with The American Sound: Pilgrim's Rest, 11/28/19, 6:00pm

By and By: Journeying and Gathering, 11/30/19, 12:00pm
Since America’s first Thanksgiving, journeying has been one of Thanksgiving’s key ingredients. Whether criss-crossing the country on a series of airplanes, or driving to a Thanksgiving destination, there’s always a sense of leaving where you are in joyful anticipation of gathering wherever those you love most may be. Enjoy an hour of beautiful music for peaceful Thanksgiving journeying and gathering – Stephen Paulus’ gorgeous arrangement of We Gather Together, Robert Ashford’s lovely chamber work Rise and Fall and Peaceful Rest, Anonymous 4 with Shall We Gather at the River, Ning Kam’s sizzling Variations on Amazing Grace and Pulitzer Priz

Thanksgiving Weekend 2020 is in progress in Canada !

From a long running public radio show called “Blues Unlimited”...

Stream & Playlist - https://beta.prx.org/stories/86387

Blues Unlimited #172 - Playing With Food

Remember when you were growing up and your mom told you not to play with your food? Well, we're tossing that advice out the window, as we play with our food for two solid hours. We'll hear classics like "Strawberry Jam," "Bar-B-Q Sauce," and "Onion Rings," as well as "Candied Yams," "Cold Turkey," and many, many more.

NOTE TO RADIO STATIONS : This episode of Blues Unlimited is designed to be our Thanksgiving Special. However, since the Thanksgiving Day Holiday is not specifically mentioned anywhere in the program, it can also be run in regular rotation, as needed.
