For many people, Fred Child is the voice of classical music. Since 2000, he has hosted APM’s Performance Today, the most-listened-to classical music show in the country. Last month, Fred announced he will step down in October 2025 after 25 years with the program.

MPR News guest host Chris Farrell talks with Child as he heads into his final season about the beauty and breadth of classical music, how it taps into our emotions and why it needs to shed its “stuffiness” to reach younger and more diverse audiences.

Guest:

Fred Child is the host of Performance Today. He was also the commentator and announcer for “Live from Lincoln Center” on PBS. He has hosted many other live national broadcasts, including significant events from New York, Los Angeles, London, Boston and the Aspen Music Festival.
