Working with a spouse might be fun and convenient...and challenging. Pianist Lucille Chung is married to her duo partner, Alessio Bax, and the arrangement couldn't have worked out better for them, as well as their audience. On today's show, Alessio Bax and Lucille Chung play their own arrangement of Milonga del Angel by Astor Piazzolla.
