Aeolian impromptu - A podcast by Maya
Categories:
My guest is American composer and pianist Mizzy Mazzoli. Missy writes music for pretty much every medium under the sun: opera, orchestra, chamber ensemble, film, television, and for her own band, Victoire. Mazzoli often centres her work on strong female characters. A co-founder of Luna Composition Lab, a mentorship program that focuses on developing the next generation of women, nonbinary and gender-nonconforming composers, she is outspoken about the position of women in contemporary classical composition. In this episode we discussed her work process, upcoming projects and her mentorship program Luna Composition Lab.
