Every week on Performance Today™, Bruce Adolphe re-writes a familiar tune in the style of a classical composer. We get one of our listeners on the phone, and our caller listens to Bruce play his Piano Puzzler™. They then try to do two things: name the hidden tune, and name the composer whose style Bruce is mimicking. From American Public Media.

Customer Reviews
Sweet podcast
I like the piano music
It was cool
Update?
I love this podcast and the talented Bruce and would love to see him branch out with a wider range of some newer pieces that folks under 40 might know. The same handful of American Songbook pieces frequently surface - makes it easier to guess but would love to see what Bruce could do with something from the 21st c!
Every show is great!
Creativity and super-vibes.
