Andy Russo

Juilliard-trained pianist Andy Russo has released Mix Tape, a collection of 14 classical arrangements of nuggets by Billy Joel, James Blunt, the B-52’s, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, and countless others. The album pays homage to those old cassettes you gave your high school sweetheart. Russo joins us to perform live and talk about the art of mix tapes.

    That so-called classical arrangement of "Play That Funky Music" makes me appreciate Wild Cherry all the more!!
