Gerry Brown and Karen Briggs discuss groove (part 1 of 2)

Gerry’s guest for this two-part episode is the genre-bending violinist, Karen Briggs. For nearly five decades, Karen has brought solo violin to places it had never been, like jazz fusion with Stanley Clarke, hip hop with  Wu Tang Clan, pop and soul with En Vogue and Diana Ross, and, famously, world music with Yanni. As you will hear in this first part, it has not always been easy, but success can come from unexpected places…when you are true to the groove.
