9-11, Birdsongs, Librettist
Kurt Andersen looks at how novelists, filmmakers, and photographers have tried to make sense of 9/11. The composer Ned Rorem tells us why he’s fallen for French music. And we’ll find out how an Italian Jew born in the 18th century became a Catholic priest, Mozart’s librettist, and a greengrocer in New York City.
