Puzzler for Feb. 9, 2005

Pianist and composer Bruce Adolphe returns with a classical twist to the "name that tune" game. He re-writes a popular melody in the style of a classical composer and challenges a listener -- teamed with NPR's Fred Child -- to identify both. This week's contestant is Laurie Rathsam of San Diego, Calif.
