On this April Fools’ Day we celebrate a resource that chronicles how National Public Radio (NPR) has annually planted a hoax in their programming each first day of April since the 1980s.
NPR’s April Fools’ Day hoaxes (RILM Abstracts of Music Literature 2015-86280) is an online collection of brief articles published by The Museum of Hoaxes. Music-related entries include Orchestra steroid scandal, Ring-tone rage, and Beethoven’s 10th symphony.
Above and below, Robin Olson’s appearance on NPR’s Tiny desk concert series on 1 April 2018.
