Men Playing with Their Strings

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Guitarist David Leisner stops by Soundcheck today. Notable teacher, composer and inspiring performer, Leisner is also recognized as one of America's leading classical guitarists. He's in the studio for a little chitchat and performs for us. Also, the Nurse Kaya String Quartet is here with music that's unpredictable, complex and challenging. The six-musician ensemble combine their individual diverse influences together to create original music.
