Pulitzer prize-winning columnist Charles Krauthammer is Chairman of Pro Musica Hebraica. He spoke to Classical WETA's Deb Lamberton about why he and his wife Robyn created the series with Artistic Director James Conlon, and about the upcoming concerts on November 18th and March 19th at the Kennedy Center's Terrace Theater.
