they fell in love with each other. Finckel describes their musical chemistry
this way, "For us, it was like that right from the start. And I think that was
one of the things that just sent up a signal to us that we were meant to be
together somehow, in more ways than one." The husband-and-wife team of David
Finckel and Wu Han are in the PT studios today, sharing music and conversation
with host Fred Child.
