ANDRE KOSTELANETZ SHOW "Lily Pons"

April 25, 1946 (AFRTS Transcription) André Kostelanetz specialized in “light classical” music which was accessible to the everyday listener. CBS President William S. Paley gave the maestro his own weekly show to spread this somewhat high-brow form of cultural enlightenment. Kostelanetz was then married to famed soprano Lily Pons from 1938 to 1958, when they divorced.
