The Performer: Part One
Meet the Composer - A podcast by Q2 Music, WQXR
We're kicking off Season Three with a look beyond the composer to the performer, that unusual intermediary between the artist and the audience. How do performers from different cultures, who speak different languages, come together to perform the same piece? What happens when an ensemble completely messes up... and the audience loves it? How does a piece change when it’s played nonstop for twelve hours?
We explore these questions and more, taking a seat on stage as we find out what it’s like to experience music from the inside-out.
