Franz Joseph Haydn was an important music pioneer and teacher. He was so beloved people referred to him as "Papa" - and they still do to this day!
All week, we'll hear some gentle musical "Papa" jokes from Haydn.
We'll tease your brain with a new Quizlet, too!
Tune in Monday through Friday at 7:40 and 3:20, or listen any time at the links below.
