Israeli lady-of-song and many-times-over grammy winner.

A percussionist extraordinaire who has successfully made a name for himself in the international jazz scene.

Jonathon Biss has a flourishing international career established through his orchestral and recital performances in North America and Europe and now through his recordings for EMI. His recent recording of Schumann's Fantasie in C, Op.17, Arabeske in C, Op.18 and Kreisleriana, Op.16 has been widely and very warmly acclaimed.

Joshua Bell visits once again to discuss his latest projects, and a very interesting experiment he was involved in.

We hear a wonderful interview that had been lost (and miraculously found) between eminent jazz pianist-composer Stanley Cowell and acclaimed soprano Julianne Baird. Bob Perkins joins Jill in this very interesting conversation.

Jill's guest this week is one of the most respected figures in choral music, and a composer and conductor. John Rutter's works are among the most frequently-performed works in the choral repertoire, and he joins Jill on this week's Crossover.
