In Studio: Brooklyn Rundfunk Orkestrata

Soundcheck | Feb 28, 2011

The "Edelweiss" enthusiast joins us to talk about hoarding film posters, copies of the soundtrack, sheet music and even an eight-track tape. And, he brings in his Brooklyn Rundfunk Orkestrata to play songs from the new album, "The Hills Are Alive," a reinterpretation of songs from the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical.
