Although Season 5 is coming to an end, there is quite a bit being born in this episode! For this installment of Strokes in Notes, we will be looking at 3 paintings by Renaissance master, Sandro Botticelli, and how those paintings inspired a composer hundreds of years later. After this episode, N&S is taking a break for a while, but you'll have to listen to the episode to find out why. :) Thank you for all your support through these 70 episodes and 5 seasons. We look forward to our return, but for now, Enjoy!
