The Church's Fiirm | The Sperm Whales of Dominica | Yannick Nézet-Séguin
The Church's Fiirm – 60 MINUTES reports on the $100 billion fortune built by the secretive investment arm of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and a whistleblower's allegation that instead of spending the money on good works, hundreds of millions were used to bail out businesses with church ties. Sharyn Alfonsi speaks with David Nielsen, a former senior portfolio manager at the church's firm, about his role in a federal investigation and decision to come forward.
The Sperm Whales of Dominica – The sperm whale, one of the largest animals in the sea, is at risk because of noise pollution, ship strikes, and plastic trash. Cecilia Vega dives in off the coast of Dominica, where hundreds of sperm whales live year-round, to observe these mysterious mammals and understand the efforts to protect the vulnerable species.
Yannick Nézet-Séguin – Correspondent Jon Wertheim interviews conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin, music director of three major orchestras: in Philadelphia, in his hometown of Montreal, and at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, which has pinned on him the bold revamping of its artistic mission. The maestro is betting new works by new composers will draw a wider audience and shore up the Met's perpetually saggy bottom line. Known for his versatility and approachability as much as his virtuosity, Nézet-Séguin tells Wertheim why he's not worried about upsetting opera traditionalists with this radical fundamental change.
