About
This week on From the Top, we meet two delightful Norwegian sisters who serenade us not only on their classical violins, but also on their Norwegian folk fiddles.
We try to bottle the energy of a 16-year-old flutist, and we present our special feature “Kids Who’ve Grown Up Seeing Moose” which includes a fantastic line-up of rural kid classical musicians.

Flutist Martha Cargo, 16, from Columbia, MD, performs Sonatina, 3rd mvt. by Eldin Burton
Pianist Jenna Delisle, 14, from Parrotsville, TN, performs Rhapsody in C, Op. 11, No. 3 by Ernö Dohnányi
