Kids Commute: Nov. 11-15

On this week's program, hear music requested by Jillian, Audrey, Rueby, Celia, Sabina and Martin.

This fall season, we're inviting young listeners from preschool through high school to join us for this musical experience. We spotlight Interlochen Arts Academy students this week who are excitedly preparing their upcoming Interlochen performance of "Into the Woods" by Stephen Sondheim.

"Into the Woods" will run for three performances at Interlochen’s Corson Auditorium, Friday, Nov. 15 through Sunday, Nov. 17, and tickets are still available from Interlochen's online box office.

Each weekday, we are featuring a different guest host and "Into the Woods" cast member... classical music selected by kids and teens from our community. Explore the fun details and get involved as a host now!

Tune in every weekday at 7:40 a.m. and 3:20 p.m. to hear these special hosts and enjoy their music choices!
