Performance Today
To celebrate Mardi Gras, we hear music from New Orleans and bring news of the musical scene since Katrina. Pianist Allen Toussaint plays his post-Katrina meditation, "Tipitina and Me." Then we hear from the Louisiana Philharmonic's first concert after Katrina. They play Frank Proto's symphony Fantasy on the Saints, based on the Dixieland classic "When the Saints Go Marchin' In."
