On Soundcheck, you'll find in-studio performances by everyone from indie rockers to string quartets to jazz ensembles.

With the rock band The National, Bryce and Aaron Dessner earned critical acclaim. With the Red Hot compilation "Dark Was the Night," the twin brothers gathered pop and indie rock stars for an AIDS awareness project. Now, they're dipping their toes into classical waters. The Dessners join us to talk about a song cycle for a multimedia show called "The Long Count." And, they give us a preview, live in studio.

This music is so inspiring.
Great musicians who love their job, not just puppets on a stage like many other bands.
Please, come more often to Europe.
Italy waits for your shows!
Whoa. These guys are geniuses. Gotta stick out the first part of the piece to get to the live music in the middle. So worth it.
I think there are still great seats for these shows, at least when I checked. Cool Halloween activity option...

This sounds really great. Wish I had heard this when more decent seats were available, but it still makes me want to go.
And, off-topic, but, speaking of massive amounts of indie rock, any programming on CMJ this week?
I love you The National!
Your new stuff strikes me as slightly minimalist. I love!
