A Prairie Home Companion for July 11, 2015

Description

We're kicking off our summer rebroadcasts with a show originally from September 2013 at The Fitzgerald Theater in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Väsen demonstrate proper nyckelharpa technique on "Kludd'n." Chic Gamine bring the big harmonies on "Motions." Chris Thile shows off his classical chops on a few violin sonatas and partitas - yes, you read that right, it's Bach on the mandolin - and joins the boys from Sweden on "Flippen." Plus, Guy Noir tracks down a counterfeiter named Louie LeVahn; a word from Bebopareebop Rhubarb Pie; and in Lake Wobegon, the high school students take the ACT exam.
