also explains how he got Samantha (the digital voice that introduces each
show) to sing "I'm in the mood for love".

blind musician.

The theme of this week's show is music. Since visually impaired people pay
more attention to what they hear, it's no surprise that there are a lot of
blind musicians. We'll talk about reading, learning and playing music
yourself, using Band-in-a-Box to arrange and produce music and using your
computer to play recorded and broadcast music.
