    Mstislav Rostropovich at 75: Part II

    We highlight the intersection between music and politics today in our series on Mstislav Rostropovich, and the arts that were forbidden under the Soviet regime. Then Israeli singer and activist Chava Alberstein discusses her soulful blend of traditional folk and pop music, in the volatile context of the Middle East. And an interveiw with composer Phillip K. Bimstein, who is also the two-time mayor of Springdale, Utah, and is now running for Congress. Plus, live chamber music performed by the Sylvan Winds Quintet.
