Summary:
Twenty years ago, Leon Botstein started the annual Bard Music Festival. This year the festival focuses on the Viennese modernist Alban Berg. Botstein pitches Berg's difficult, dissonant work to audiences who normally can't stand 20th-century music. He tells Kurt that music suffers from "masterpiece syndrome", which keeps attention off of lesser-known artists and prevents audiences from understanding them.
Then, Kurt takes a look inside Pandora a music website that creates personalized streaming radio stations based on your favorite music with founder Tim Westergren. And Los Angeles Times critic Ann Powers helps Kurt test the system's mettle, trying to build a station that caters to fans of both Yo-Yo Ma and Ludacris.
Finally, Gabriel von Wayditch wrote 14 operas, some telling R-rated stories and one that's the longest in history. But hardly anyone's ever heard of him. Music curator Frank Oteri discovered von Wayditch back in the 1980s and has since been on a lifelong struggle to bring his music to the world. Produced by Sally Herships.
