    Live at Symphony Space

    A year ago, Soundcheck hosted a live, sold-out evening of music and conversation at Peter Norton Symphony Space's Leonard Nimoy Thalia Theater. Today we feature highlights of that evening with violinist Anne Akiko Meyers, who performed music by Bartok, Chaplin and Ravel. And we hear selections from singer-songwriter Cynthia Hopkins, whose style features a cutting-edge take on contemporary alt-country music. Rounding out the show is a blistering live performance by Latin-jazz pianist Arturo O'Farrill.
