A Week of Remembrance: Christoph von Dohnányi on Classic 107

This week, from September 8 to 12 at 1 PM, Classic 107 pays tribute to the late Christoph von Dohnányi, the German conductor who passed away this past weekend in Munich at the age of 95. During his 18-year tenure as Music Director of the Cleveland Orchestra (1984–2002), he transformed the ensemble into an internationally admired powerhouse.

Over a hundred artists have converged on MAWA (Mentoring Artists for Women’s Art) in the Exchange District for a new show with a wide range of perspectives united by colour. That new show is called Chroma, and it is a chance for MAWA’s member artists to sell their works and showcase the colours that inspire them most. 

Christoph von Dohnányi, the German conductor whose 18-year tenure at the helm of the Cleveland Orchestra transformed it into one of the world’s most admired ensembles, has died in Munich. He was 95, just two days shy of his 96th birthday.

Doctors are calling for restrictions on sports betting ads, saying they are setting youth up for a future of problem gambling.

An editorial published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal on Monday says the ads are everywhere during sports broadcasts and that the legalization of online gambling has made every smartphone a potential betting platform.

Editor Dr. Shannon Charlebois says even though betting sites say they're only for people 19 years of age and older, youth are being inundated with advertising that equates enjoying sports with betting.

Politicians and hockey stars are mourning the loss of hockey legend and former federal politician Ken Dryden, who passed away Friday at age 78 after a battle with cancer.

Dryden, 78, was a Hall of Fame goaltender who won six Stanley Cups backstopping the Montreal Canadiens as well as minding the cage during Canada's generation-defining victory at the 1972 Summit Series against the Soviet Union.
