Bill Nye the Science guy first became a television sensation and a staple in the classroom in 1993 when the first episode of Bill Nye the Science guy aired on PBS KCTS-TV. After the show’s last and hundredth episode in 1998, Bill continued in the entertainment industry, taking on smaller acting roles. He found love, or at least it seemed that way at first. He stepped out of his comfort zone and traded the test tubes for dancing shoes when he took a part in Dancing with the Stars in 2013. He’s even had his own court battle with ex-fiancee Blair Tindall; what celebrity bio is complete without a trip to the courthouse.

Author Blair Tindall is my guest this week. You may know her from her controversial 2005 book, "Mozart in the Jungle", or the hit Amazon series of the same name, created by Jason Schwartzman and starring Gael Garcia Bernal. Blair has had a stellar career as a classical musician, playing oboe for the NY Philharmonic, for hit shows on broadway, and as a session player for film and television. There's also been a lot of commotion over Blair's tell-all book about life in the classical world, and she speaks candidly about her experiences with some of the major players who loom large in our community. Blair also details the subsequent fallout after the book's publication, which quickly led to her being black-listed by many former friends and colleagues. "Mozart in the Jungle" is a real page turner- I loved the book, and I'm loving the Amazon series, too, so check them both out- I hope you enjoy our chat!

Grammy-nominated oboist Blair Tindall penned Mozart in the Jungle, now an Amazon Studios comedy series of the same name winning two 2016 Golden Globe Awards. She enjoys a musical career ranging from the classical stage of Carnegie Hall to the late-night ambiance of New York's famed Blue Note Jazz Club. She presented a critically acclaimed Weill Recital Hall debut and captured a top prize in the Lucarelli International Competition for Solo Oboists. A busy classical artist, Blair has played principal oboe with the New York Philharmonic, San Francisco Symphony, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, Orchestra of St. Luke's, New York City Ballet and Opera Orchestras and the Pittsburgh Symphony. She was solo oboist on Broadway with Les Miserables, Aspects of Love, Man of La Mancha and Miss Saigon and graduated from Manhattan School of Music, Columbia and Stanford Universities, and has taught music & journalism at UC-Berkeley, Stanford, and Mills College.

The Celebrity Dinner Party with Elysabeth Alfano - Audio Podcast
What do Blair Tindall, author of the book, Mozart in the Jungle, which inspired the Amazon original series of the same name, and Dr. Travis Stork co-host of TV talk show, The Doctors, have in common? Drugs! Over several different salads and Kendall Jackson Avant Chardonnay, Blair, Dr. Travis and host Elysabeth Alfano dish on drugs, staying healthy, working with Jasaon Schwartzmann and Roman Copolla on "Mozart in the Jungle", Stork on "The Bachelor" and surprising career twists and turns on this most recent episode of The Celebrity Dinner Party with Elysabeth Alfano.
When oboist, journalist, and author Blair Tindall wrote her memoir, Mozart in the Jungle, she tells us, she didn’t necessarily not think it would become a TV show. But she did stop to marvel at the fact that playing the oboe could lead to buying a dress for the Golden Globes. Last night, the Amazon series based on her book won two Golden Globes: One for Best TV Comedy or Musical, and one Best Actor in a TV Comedy or Musical for Gael García Bernal’s performance as conductor Rodrigo de Souza. (The lesson here being that becoming a classical musician will surely lead to fame and fortune.) In this Classical Classroom, MusicWorks episode, Tindall talks about life as a classical musician, what led her to write Mozart in the Jungle, and the importance of debunking classical music stereotypes and myths. We also discuss Jason Schwartzman’s impressive facial hair, hanging out with Coppolas, and how an oboe rolls when you drop it on the floor. Music in this episode: Symphony No. 1 “Low” (aka, the “Low” Symphony). Philip Glass (based on David Bowie’s album, Low) The Planets: Mars, the Bringer of War. Gustav Holst. Played by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, James Levine conducting. “Lisztomania,” from the album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. Phoenix. Arranged for orchestra by Roger Neill and Suzie Katayama. Audio production by Todd “BB-Todd” Hulslander with fluency in over six million languages by Dacia Clay and editing by Mark DiClaudio.
We are featuring Blair Tindall on the podcast today. Blair is the author of the book Mozart in the Jungle, which explores the world of classical musicians in a very compelling narrative. Blair and I talk about life as a New York freelancer, her journey into a career as a writer, and we take a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the production of the TV series. Mozart in the Jungle has been turned into a TV series on Amazon Video. The first season received two Golden Globe nominations (one for best comedy series and one for Gael Garcia Bernal for best actor) and the second season launches today!
