Performance Today host Fred Child on taking the ‘stuffiness’ out of classical music

For many people, Fred Child is the voice of classical music. Since 2000, he has hosted APM’s Performance Today, the most-listened-to classical music show in the country. Last month, Fred announced he will step down in October 2025 after 25 years with the program. MPR News guest host Chris Farrell talks with Child as he heads into his final season about the beauty and breadth of classical music, how it taps into our emotions and why it needs to shed its “stuffiness” to reach younger and more diverse audiences. Guest: Fred Child is the host of Performance Today. He was also the commentator and announcer for “Live from Lincoln Center” on PBS. He has hosted many other live national broadcasts, including significant events from New York, Los Angeles, London, Boston and the Aspen Music Festival.

How philanthropy can support housing stability and racial justice

The Pohlad family announced last month that they were looking to sell the Minnesota Twins after owning the team for 40 years. Well, for almost that long, the Pohlads also have had a private family foundation. It gives away millions of dollars every year to nonprofit organizations around the Twin Cities. In recent years the foundation has focused on two priorities — giving money to ease the housing crisis and address racial inequality. One of the foundation’s goals is to increase the number of Black homeowners. Coming up at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, MPR News host Angela Davis talks with the president of the Pohlad Family Foundation, Susan Bass Roberts, about how and where the Pohlads give away their money and about her own career in corporate and community philanthropy, We want to hear from you, too. What questions do you have about the Pohlad Family Foundation or about how foundations give away their money? Call us during the 9 a.m. hour at 651-227-6000 or 800-242-2828. Guest: Susan Bass Roberts was named president of the Pohlad Family Foundation in 2024, after joining the foundation in 2016 and serving as its vice president and executive director. She previously served as executive director of the Best Buy Foundation, vice president of communications and community relations for the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons and director of community affairs and philanthropy for Limited Brands, Inc.

If you are, npr will bend head over heels to share your story, never willing to examine the other side of such stories, narratives. It makes for easy reporting, news gathering, but leaves us all less informed at the end of the day
