Juggling Barber and Babies
It's a dilemma that every working parent faces, how to do right by your children while honoring your job responsibilities as well. We'll hear how violinist Lisa Batiashvili and her husband, oboist Francois Leleux manage to juggle parenthood with the demands of a music career. And we'll hear Batiashvili on a night when Leleux was home with the kids while she played the Barber Violin Concerto in Paris.
