  • Classical Queer Episode 34
    Apr 7 2024

    On this month's Classical Queer Podcast we welcome composer and performer Zachery Meier. We talked to him about his life as a flutist (or flautist and definitely not flootist) and his wonderful compositions. Jacob and I had a great time talking with Zachery and I learnt a lot about the combination of flute and tuba - it works!

    Come and take a listen to some fantastic music that for me pushed the boundaries of what a flute can do.

    Something a little different this month. Jacob talks to some students about their music and also takes us behind the scenes during practice. It is nice to hear young musicians talk about their lives and how music fits into it.

    So do take a listen.

    For our first podcast of 2024 Jacob and I are so pleased to welcome Hub New Music to the show. Hub New Music are a string and wind quartet who have been called "contemporary chamber trailblazers" through their fresh and exciting music.

    We interviewed two of the four members Mike Avitabile (flutes) and Meg Rohrer (violin/viola) - they are joined in Hub by Gleb Kanasevich (clarinets) and Jesse Christeson (cello).

    So do join us for a fun and may I say joyous hour of conversation and music.
