Carnegie Hall
How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Well, according to the old joke, "Practice!" Another way to get there is to listen to today's show. We've got an hour of performances from that venerable old hall on the corner of 57th and 7th in New York City. We'll hear highlights from concerts by pianist Arcadi Volodos, mezzo-soprano Susan Graham, and conductor Georg Solti.
