Tenor Nathan Granner has done his share of traditional work with the likes of the Lyric Opera here in Kansas City and as a member of The American Tenors trio.

But Granner has gone beyond the boundaries with ventures into pop, flamenco, and jazz, and he has a new album for the season: Hymn: Songs of Great Faith.

In the last portion of Friday's Up to Date, Steve Kraske talks with Ganner about his new album and a new performing arts project, The Monocle.
