Frank King’s lecture, “ONE WEEK OF MUSIC,” will feature A song for each of the 7 days of the week, including Simon &Garfunkel’s first hit (thanks to a record producer), one of the Gershwin’s most beautiful songs, a funny Al Jolson number, a “Saturday” medley by our greatest crooners, and an ultra-rare Rodgers & Hammerstein flop.
Mr. King holds a Master's in Broadcasting from Boston University and a BA from Princeton. A lifelong devotee of recorded music, he formerly hosted music programs on WBUR radio, was a News Producer at WCVB TV, Channel 5, and an Assistant Professor at B.U. His lectures draw from the music and art from his personal collection of over 2500 record albums. He has presented several hundred highly acclaimed music lectures around Greater Boston and Cape Cod since 2014.
