Classically Speaking

This week's Mountain Stage show on the radio includes Ra Ra Riot (who you might remember as the fun pop band with a violinist and cellist that I featured on Classically Speaking a few months ago). Find their show on the radio, check out their set on NPR Music, and check out my interview with Ra Ra Riot violinist Rebecca Zeller here on the Classically Speaking blog.  (Susan Werner is also on that show, and she has some classical connections of her own.)

 Then next week on the radio, you can hear Edgar Meyer, Bela Fleck, and Zakir Hussain's performance on Mountain Stage from March. You can hear more of this great trio in the Performance Today archives, a recording from when they joined Fred Child on stage for a live interview and performance in Miami, Florida. You can also see them play a couple tunes over at NPR's Tiny Desk.

(Thanks to Chris for the tip on the Performance Today Facebook page about the Meyer/Fleck/Hussain performance from the PT archives!)
