    From Mozart to Radiohead

    To kick off Mozart's 250th birthday celebration on WNYC, composer Rob Kapilow discusses Mozart's most popular composition, "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik." Radiohead is often covered by jazz musicians, but now by a classical string quartet? You bet. Today, hear selections from OK Computer played by the LA-based Section Quartet. Finally, another legal battle surrounding the signature gravely voice of Tom Waits.
