First hour: Cellist Rufus Cappadocia
Second hour: Previewing the Oscars
Rufus Cappadocia began playing the cello when he was three-years-old. 14 years later, he added a fifth string to his instrument, and was thinking about music through a global and historical context. We'll talk to this remarkable musician about composing and playing music, designing instruments, and about the social and environmental causes he supports.
Then in our second hour, we'll preview this Sunday's Academy Awards. Our guests give their predictions for who will win, who should win, and we'll discuss how this year's Oscar nominations have ended the diversity drought. Our guests:
- Jack Garner, longtime film critic
- Lester D. Friedman, professor and former chair of the Media and Society Program at Hobart and William Smith College
- Adam Lubitow, film critic for City Newspaper
