The 21st annual Latin Grammy Award winners were announced on November 19. Lawrence-based pianist and music teacher Paulina Leisring was on the list.

The 2021 Grammy nominees were announced on Tuesday — and at least five artists with Kansas City ties are in the mix.

Kansas City Ballet, Lyric Opera of Kansas City, and others canceled seasons earlier this year because of COVID-19. Now rising cases in the metro, and new restrictions, are thwarting attempts to bring back indoor performances.

Stephen Steigman and Dawn Schnake chat with Music Director Charles Bruffy, Soprano Lindsey Lang and Tenor Frank Fleschner from The Kansas City Chorale. They share music from five of their CDs and discuss what it was like to win a Grammy.
