Do your musical tastes stop changing at a certain age? At what point does age "appropriateness" start to enter into what new music you add to your established favorites? At a time when it's increasingly common to find adults over 40 wearing the latest fashions from Urban Outfitters and staying up all night attending rock concerts, that question is more relevant than ever. Joining us to look at the changing generation gap is Ann Powers, pop music critic of the Los Angeles Times, and Adam Sternbergh, a writer for New York magazine. Also: Violinist Midori has made the switch from child prodigy to mature artist more successfully than most. She joins us to talk about her latest projects, which involve bringing audiences to contemporary music.
