The Minnesota Orchestra performing live without an audience, out of safety concerns due to Covid-19. Joseph Scheller/Minnesota Orchestra
The Minnesota Orchestra played a concert in the middle of March, with no audience in the house, but live on stage and live on the radio. On today's show, we have the story, then hear pianist Kirill Gerstein play Rachmaninoff's Concerto No. 2 with the Minnesota Orchestra and conductor Juanjo Mena, all for an empty hall.
