Audra McDonald performs "Craigslistlieder"
Clip: Season 38 Episode 6 | 4m 44s
Audra McDonald sings two selections from a song cycle inspired by actual Craigslist ads.
Unlikely but, as it turns out, perfectly fitting additions to the tradition of German lieder, these songs take their text and inspiration from ads on Craigslist. Audra McDonald pokes fun at her own classical training in these "passionate" performances.
