Welcome to Intermezzo from Interlochen Public Radio, where we take a few minutes to bounce some ideas around about classical music.
I'm Christy L'Esperance and cohosting with me this week are Barb & Scott. They both play an instrument that is both hard to miss and rarely seen: the alphorn.
Yesterday we found out where the spit goes and today we'll find out why you always see people playing them on mountain tops.

This week's Mystery Melody
It's time to test your ears. Each week we have a mystery melody that we have to figure out together. It relates to our topic. (We'll make the melody less mysterious each day.)
If you know the mystery melody, text your name and the title and we’ll give you a shout out on Friday. The number to text is (833) 490-4718.
