I will be presenting four special programs of Polish music in observance of the seventieth anniversary of this tragic event.

I have always been interested in Polish music, and have presented specials as well regularly on my programs. See the playlists: >>>

This is is my personal tribute to this wonderful country and it's resilient people.
