Baritone Will Liverman's star is rising quickly in the opera world, but Will like everyone else is on something of a live performance hiatus since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. This gave him an opportunity to work on something near to his heart - his new album "Dreams of a New Day." Hear an interview with Liverman along with several tracks off the new album. We'll also celebrate the birth of Nina Simone and there is more besides.
