About this listen

Asha Srinivasan, composer of the 2015 FNMC Composition Competition winner for flute and cello, Dviraag, joins us today to discuss her auspicious beginnings as a classical singer in India, how she blends her Indian and American heritage in her work, and so much more! She stresses how making art is a process of self-discovery, but her specific tips can really help us all collaborate better with one another. And she spills some tea on her latest flute project with her colleague from Lawrence Conservatory, Erin Lesser!
