Between his career with The Police and as a solo artist, Sting has accumulated countless Grammys and sold almost 100 million albums. He set his sights on the classical world with his latest project, a dramatization of the romantic relationship between German composer Robert Schumann and his wife, pianist and composer Clara Wieck. Sting plays Schumann and his wife, actress and producer Trudie Styler, plays Clara in a piece that is on a DVD called Twin Spirits. He joins us today.
