Evening Concert celebrates Classical Music Month in September with guest Carol Kellett, an HPR member and volunteer. Kellett speaks to host Craig DeSilva about playing in the U.S. Army Band, singing in choirs, her love of Hawaiian music and hula, and her work involving the preservation of music at the State Archives.

This classical music conversation aired on September 25, 2023. Evening Concert airs weekdays from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on HPR-2.

Craig DeSilva is glad to be playing recorded music on the air instead of playing for a live audience on stage as did when he studied piano. He began piano lessons when he was a child and continued piano studies at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (where he majored in broadcast journalism and minored in music) under the late Peter Coraggio.
