World Cafe Playlist for 04/28/2026

Beverly Glenn-Copeland joins host Raina Douris

A few years ago, musician Beverly Glenn-Copeland received a difficult diagnosis. A Major Cognitive Disorder, a form of what some might call dementia. On the World Cafe, Glenn and his wife Elizabeth Copeland talk about their relationship’s resilience and beauty in the face of that diagnosis, and how it shaped the music on their new album, Laughter in Summer.

Listen to the session here.
