Music Around New York... and About New York

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Radiohead, Isaac Hayes and the Mostly Mozart Festival are among the highlights of this summer's concert agenda in New York. Today: we take you through a selected round-up of the best summer concerts for all tastes. Also: New York is clearly a star in "Sex and the City: The Movie," which opens this weekend. The composer of the film's musical score talks about capturing the essence of big-city glamour. Meanwhile, big-city grit has often been a theme of Bang on a Can's annual Marathon. We get a preview of this weekend's edition. And finally: a trip way downtown, to a sound installation created by David Byrne.
