Connections: Chuck Berry, Hall of Fame inductees, and more on music

In several billion years, the sun will run out of hydrogen at its core, and that will be game over for humans. So why do we care about music if this is all for naught? Just kidding; music is awesome. And there's a lot to discuss: the legacy of the great Chuck Berry; the choices for the next wave into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame; even the Rochester City Ballet's ongoing efforts to cross genres and attract new audiences.

Our guests:

  • John Covach, director of the Institute for Popular Music at the University of Rochester
  • David Palmer, artistic director of the Rochester City Ballet
