At noon: a special hour with violinist Joshua Bell. Today, the first half of his November performance at the RiverCenter in Columbus, Georgia. We hear Joshua Bell play Mendelssohn and Beethoven with English pianist Sam Haywood. (Catch the rest of their recital - music of Ysaye and Franck - tomorrow at noon.) It's Joshua Bell in concert and in conversation on GPB Radio.
