Listen to This is a new feature we air from time to time on the Leonard Lopate Show. Today, celebrated choreographer Mark Morris tells us about The Bad Plus, a trio that says they've spent the last few years "busting up any and all preconceived notions of what an acoustic jazz trio ought to be." Listen to their cover of the Blondie hit "Heart of Glass," from The Bad Plus's album These are the Vistas.
