This Sunday, the Grammy Awards will recognize some of the past year's best music. Associated Press music reporter Maria Sherman talks about the nominated tracks and albums, and previews the event.

Yiddish culture has a long history in New York, and an ongoing presence in contemporary city life. Henry Sapoznik, author of the book, The Tourist's Guide to Lost Yiddish New York City, discusses some of the hidden history of Yiddish life in New York, and listeners share their favorite corner and memories of Yiddish New York history.

The new book Pride and Pleasure: The Schuyler Sisters in an Age of Revolution tells the story of Angelica, Eliza, and Peggy Schuyler, sisters in a prominent New York family in Revolutionary America (and of course the stars of "Hamilton"). Author Amanda Vaill discusses the book as part of our ongoing biography series 'Full Bio.' In today's installment, hear about Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton. 

Tomorrow from 11am to 7pm, some of the arts' biggest names including Lin-Manuel Miranda, Sara Bareilles and Constance Wu will appear on the steps of The Public to perform and protest in solidarity with the people of Minnesota. We speak to Saheem Ali and Alexa Smith, the associate artistic directors of The Public about "The People's Filibuster."
