Welcome to Intermezzo from Interlochen Public Radio, where we take a few minutes to bounce some ideas around about classical music.
Christy L'Esperance and her cohost, 11-year-old Vivienne, talk about Circus Arts — and they're not talking about paintings of sad clowns on black velvet.
Today they're talking about aerial arts! Part of aerial skills is making dangerous and athletic tricks look graceful and easy. And the music helps to create that impression.

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.
