Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra live | How much do you know about composers and their pets?
| | | | |
We’ve been overwhelmed (and overjoyed!) to see all of your music-loving pets this week.
Check out the classic cats, dogs, birds, chickens, cows, ducks, rats, guinea pigs, and more. Even a peacock came to visit. Not to mention the cockatiel who’s “Queen of the Night” aria would make many a soprano jealous.
According to our Facebook poll, 52% of you are dog people, with only 48% of respondents coming out in support of cats. You still have a couple of days to vote if you don’t agree with the results.
Make a dedication to your fur-baby on Classic Drive with Vanessa Hughes, tonight (14 August) from 4pm–8pm. Then snuggle up in the evening with a playlist for your animal family, presented by Damien Beaumont. | | | | | | |
