Thirty-years ago, 87-year-old Olga Bloom mortgaged her house to follow a dream: she created the world's only floating chamber music concert hall. Her boat is a 19th century coffee barge; it's docked under the Brooklyn Bridge, and four times a week it houses chamber music concerts. Independent producer Pamela Renner pays a visit to Ms. Bloom and her barge.
