Your turn, America

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
We’ve done enough talking on Soundcheck, now we want to listen to what you have to say. With the Grammy Awards to be handed out this weekend, we are opening up our phone lines to get your opinion on them. Tell us who you think is going to win and, more importantly, if you even care about the Grammys? Also, soprano Dana Hanchard has a very diverse career, singing music from Ecuador to Hawaii, plus operas, lieder, jazz standards, spirituals, and pop. She joins us today to talk about her many projects.
