Leif Ove Andsnes, Christian Tetzlaff – Bartók: Violin Sonatas (Virgin Classics)Indie rockers — from Bartók to pop bands
The acclaimed pianist Leif Ove Andsnes and violinist Christian Tetzlaff are poster boys for the new wave of hot young classical musicians. They've recently collaborated on a new recording of Bartók violin sonatas, and they'll play live in the studio. And Colin Meloy is the creative writer and lead singer behind the Portland band, The Decemberists. Their brand of theatrical indie pop mixed with British folk sensibilities has won them raves from around the country. Colin comes by to talk about their new record Picaresque which includes ballads about everyone from kings and camels, to baronesses and wayward virgins.
