Early Music Monday

By: Kameron Kavanaugh
  • Summary

  • Once understood at even a surface level, early music has the power to transform how all music is heard and felt. Discussions and interviews about a wide range of topics within the choral art and how those principles can help conductors, singers, and audience members have a deeper appreciation for historical music. We aim to connect the fundamental elements of early music to the music of more contemporary times to illustrate the relevance early music still holds. 

    Guests include Owain Park, Carolann Buff, Peter Schubert, Eric Whitacre, Tony Silvestri, Nigel Short, Chris Gabbitas, and many more.
