Radio Interview



While we were in Kansas City for our concert with the Friends of Chamber Music, we found time to stop by the local NPR radio station, KCUR for an interview. Steve Kraske hosts a show called Up to Date (http://www.kcur.org/uptodate.html) which features all kinds of guests from politicians to economists to entertainers. We were honored to be invited to speak with him this week.


Radio interviews are always fun and challenging - you have to negotiate the headphones, the microphone, the cough button (!), and put together coherent and interesting comments on the spot. But luckily Steve made it feel more like a conversation than a quiz on our previous acheivements!

Sometimes when you're sitting in the radio studio you wonder if anyone out there is listening or if you're just speaking to the empty air waves. But later we heard from many people who had decided to come to the concert after hearing us on the air ;-)

If you want to listen in on our interview, check out this link to our show in particular: http://archive.kcur.org/kcurViewDirect.asp?PlayListID=4028

Your radio interview is terrific! Have you ever thought of becoming talk show hosts in addition to all your musical activities?
