For over 30 years the Kronos Quartet has pushed the envelope as far as what can be done with just two violins, a viola, and a cello. They’ve collaborated with pop icons in American music and Film, and their newest CD dives into the music of India's famed Bollywood. Kronos is in New Hampshire this week to unveil two world-premier works. Tonight we’ll meet Violinist and Artistic Director David Harrington and listen to some of the music off the new album.

We'll also talk with Jack McEnany about fallout over champion skier Bode Miller's comments in a recent "60 Minutes" interview that have angered the U.S. Ski Federation. Jack McEnany recently co-authored a book with Miller called Bode: Go Fast, Be Good, Have Fun. We'll talk with him about Bode's professional and personal drive and his reaction to the recent buzz over Sunday's controversial interview.
