In this episode of One Symphony, Devin Patrick Hughes interviews Lucas Richman, a Grammy winning composer and conductor, exploring his career and insightful perspectives on music and its role in society. Richman recounts his early exposure to music through composer biographies, sharing an anecdote about writing to Aaron Copland and receiving an encouraging postcard in return, which served as an early inspiration. The discussion moves to Richman's experiences with Leonard Bernstein, highlighting a masterclass on the Academic Festival Overture and the profound impact Bernstein had on his understanding of music and life. Richman emphasizes Bernstein's ability to infuse everything with love and teaching, noting his preference for discussing music with doctors rather than musicians due to their focus on the art rather than business. Richman discusses his approach to composition, emphasizing his commitment to bringing social issues and awareness into the concert hall. He describes his symphony inspired by Bernstein's words, "This will be our reply to violence is to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before," with movements embodying intensity, beauty, and devotion. He also discusses "The Warming Sea," a piece addressing climate change, and Paths to Dignity, a violin concerto inspired by the issue of homelessness. In Paths to Dignity, Richman musically portrays the word "dignity" using specific notes, aiming to create a conversation and raise awareness. He collaborated with Mitchell Newman, a violinist and advocate for the unsheltered community, to bring attention to the human stories behind homelessness. Richman reflects on his time as an assistant conductor, which instilled in him the importance of clarity and efficiency. He describes his experience conducting film scores for movies such as Seven and The Village, noting the collaborative nature of the work. Richman also shares his perspective on conducting his own music, expressing that others often bring fresh interpretations that he appreciates. Transitioning to the evolution of the conducting field, Richman acknowledges the influence of mentors like Daniel Lewis and Herbert Blomstedt, emphasizing the significance of respect, intent, and honesty. He expresses concern that some contemporary conductors prioritize showmanship over serving the music and fostering leadership skills. Turning to the role of a music director, Richman underscores the importance of community engagement, fundraising, and collaboration with the board and staff. He highlights initiatives such as streaming concerts, expanding educational programs, and forging relationships with local organizations. He also touches on his involvement in music education, including his piece Behold the Bold Umbrellaphant, which introduces children to classical music through imaginative characters.

Ludwig Van Beethoven began to lose his hearing at age 28. By age 44, his hearing loss was complete, most likely caused by compression of the eighth cranial nerve associated with Paget's disease of bone. Despite his deafness, Beethoven continued to compose symphony music. He never gave up.

When most orchestras commission a new work, they usually ask the composer to produce music that fits on a standard concert program, like a 10-minute overture or a 45-minute symphony. But when BBC Earth approached composers Adam Lukas and James Everingham — along with the two-time Oscar winner Hans Zimmer — to compose the score for its latest nature documentary series, Frozen Planet II, the show's producers needed six hours of music. Even for this trio of seasoned composers, that's a tall order to fill. Besides creating a sonic universe to accompany Frozen Planet II's icy, snow-capped visuals, these composers had to help fulfill the show's core mission: introducing viewers not only to the daily lives of polar bears, penguins, and snow monkeys — but also the ways climate change is compounding the difficulties they face surviving in the coldest regions of the world. "The series is tackling the issue of the climate crisis," Lukas says on the latest episode of the Classical Post podcast. "We knew we wanted to tell the stories of the animals in their habitats in a way that helps people connect with them and care about them in a genuine way. That's something Hans has spent his career being the best at." In this episode, I sit down with Lukas and Everingham to discuss the process of creating the series's score — which involved more than 100 people working for three years while navigating lockdown restrictions. They also share stories about collaborating with the legendary Zimmer, the magical time they spent in the studio with the Norwegian singer-songwriter Aurora, and how they define success. Frozen Planet II is available to stream in the U.S. on Prime Video, Vudu, and Apple TV. — Classical Post® is a leading podcast based in New York.

Show Notes: Ruth Hertzman-Miller, a member of the Harvard and Radcliffe class of 1992, graduated with a degree in biology and went on to a career in medicine, completing a residency in internal medicine at Cambridge City Hospital and a fellowship in health services research in Los Angeles. After returning to the Boston area, she worked as a physician at Cambridge Health Alliance and then at NewBridge, a retirement community. Ruth discussed her journey since graduating, reflecting on the unexpected twists and turns it has taken. Ruth made the difficult decision to switch from medicine to music four or five years ago. She took catch up courses at a conservatory in Boston and is now doing a master's in composition. Ruth is a pianist and choral singer and was inspired to pursue music again when her seven year old daughter joined North Cambridge Family Opera. An Education and Career in Medicine She didn't know what she wanted to do with her life when she went to college, but her dad and grandfather were both psychiatrists, so she figured she'd take some premed courses and see what happened since she liked science and helping people, but she also got to take electives in other subjects like music. In medical school at Case Western, she was interested in the clinical aspects of the program where she was assigned to a pregnant woman and followed her through delivery and the baby's first year of life, but along the way, she had many doubts about how much she wanted to be in the program. At the end of her internship year, she went to her residency director and was considering quitting, but he talked her into staying. Balancing Family Life and Work After the birth of her first child, she found it difficult to focus on both the intense schedule of work and study and family, but she finished her master's and eventually made the decision to pursue a master's in music and wrap up her medical career. Ruth balanced work and motherhood for many decades. Initially, she worked at Cambridge Health Alliance and then various medical but non-clinical jobs such as the Joslin Diabetes Clinic and the Hearst Company, and then at EBSCO Publishing. While she was in non-clinical positions, she worked clinically one day a week at Cambridge Health Alliance and then at various sites within Hebrew Rehab, finally landing at the NewBridge retirement community. When she decided to cut down on her work and dedicate more time to music, she kept her one day a week job at Hebrew Rehab and started studying for a certificate in music. Studying Musical Composition and Theory Ruth discusses her experience studying composition and writing music and what was included in the coursework. As a composer, she is interested in exploring the form of music. She studies what has been done in the past, the many options and choices available, and considers how she can create something new. She refers to Mozart and Haydn, who approached their compositions differently and how they did so. Ruth is not expecting to make a professional career out of her work, as it is difficult for a composer to make money, but instead, is more interested in exploring new forms and having her work performed. Video game music and film music are some of the biggest markets for composers; however, Ruth is not particularly interested in these areas. She is more interested in writing for small ensembles such as string quartets, for which she can find performers without much difficulty. She also talks about the place of AI in composing music, and how it can provide inspiration but needs human intervention to create a finished product. The Creative Process of Composing Music When asked if composing music feels three-dimensional, or if it has different mental qualities, Ruth answers that this is subjective and depends on the individual, but it is likely that the experience of composing music entails a combination of physical and mental elements. It requires both the ability to think in abstract terms, as well as the creative ability to visualize and construct musical ideas. It is a process that is both intuitive and analytical, where the creative elements of music are balanced with the technical aspects of composition. Ruth talks about the creative process behind composition. She explains that she typically has a broad idea, such as writing a piano piece with two players starting at opposite ends of the piano, and then breaks it down into smaller details such as melody and harmony. She then works on generating variations on the material and figuring out the logical progression of the piece. She explains that she usually isn't trying to express something that can be explained in words, but rather it is usually a feeling or an exploration of the music itself. She uses the example of a recent project to explain the process. Ruth also talks about conveying emotions through music. For some pieces of music, the goal is to introduce the theme to the audience and have them understand it through the different changes in the music. At the opposite end of this, there is writing an opera scene where the focus is more on portraying the emotions. Professors and Courses of Influence Favorite professors and courses from Harvard include Luise Vosgerchian's course on the Development of the String Quartet and John Stewart's course on Introductory Music Theory. She also talks about her more recent professor, Lyle Davidson, who happens to be in the same tradition of Luise Vosgerchian. Other favorite courses include Biology of Fishes with Karel Liem, Scientific Ethics with George Whitesides, Moral Reasoning with Thomas Scanlon, and Marjorie Garber on Shakespeare.

Most aspiring composers have narrow goals, seeing film (or video game) music or being a concert composer as the way to go, but if you can create music on paper, you actually have many options to contribute original music and add at least some income in the process. One of those ways is composing for publication that is marketed to schools and churches: music for school bands and orchestras, music for church choirs and handbells ensembles, and more. It's a tricky world that requires a flexible but creative composer who can still write very good music that is specifically tailored to various ages and levels. Bruce Tippette is a composer with dozens of published works through Alfred Music, Hal Leonard, C. Alan Publications, Carl Fischer, FJH, and more, many of which have been honored as J.W. Pepper's Editors Choice. Bruce talks with us about the skills needed to become this type of composer, how to navigate the sometimes intimidating grading system of school ensembles, strategies to getting published, and how all of this can lead to building relationships and getting commissioned work.

As a composer we talked with David about when he tends to get involved in the creative process, how hands on he gets to be with the likes of Neil Gaiman some of the challenges of composing for film and TV along with so very much more....

Introducing a new study series! When I first got started composing for games, and knew basically nothing, I had the great opportunity to meet game composer icon Chance Thomas. He told me about the text book he wrote to help young composers like me and recommended I study as if I were getting a Master's Degree in game composition. I read through the book back then and it was very helpful, if you've listened to earlier episodes you've heard me talk about it. I have decided to start the book again and do an even deeper dive and share my studying and insights with you. I recommend you get the book to study along. At the time of recording this podcast episode I don't have any kind of affiliate marketing set up, but if I do I will paste a link right below.

Kirsten Evans is a British composer who has most recently completed working in the music departments for the Hulu Original 'I am Greta' and the new Marvel movie 'Morbius' during her first year as a freelance media music composer. She has co-composed and been the vocalist for Wales' national entry to the Venice Biennale in 2017, which then toured the UK after it's 5 month stay in Venice with over 30,000+ visitors. Kirsten is the founder of two start up companies, ‘Soundbake' plans to help break down the masculine undercurrent of the virtual instrument market, whereas ‘Uglicat' is a coaching business that helps new freelance musicians, who struggle to monetise their skills in an achievable, profitable and fulfilling way. Kirsten reached out to me via email and it was so lovely to hear about an industry which I personally know so little about. The general consensus throughout this episode is, do not be worried if you send hundreds of emails and no one gets back, they may well reply over the course of time and if not, pester them! Kirsten is an incredible talent, working in a very male dominated industry, with 94% of box office scores being written by men in 2018. Please lap up all information you can from this episode and I hope you leave feeling as inspired as I did when recording.

In this Podcast Episode i speak to Composer Marco Werba all the way from Rome. I connected with Marco a couple of years ago over which time he has written and produced the musical score for my debut indie film 'A Kidnap' for which i will always be grateful. I was interested in how Marco became a composer and where his interest started, in fact it was all to do with a classic film called 'Logans Run' (great film, see it!). We talk about him growing up in multilingual family and how he started singing in a small place called the VATICAN! Marcos journey is fascinating and although he has worked with some of the best filmmakers out there i was humbled that he had helped me and my film. Why? Well mainly because Marco is just a lovely human being who wants to help people no matter how big or small their film is. We need more people like Marco out there! Fingers crossed with Covid guidelines we should finally be holding a premier for 'A Kidnap' this July/August and also raise some money for charity in the process! - Check out links below to keep up with the latest on the film!

We dive deep in the inspiration and creative process behind composing music people would like to listen to. What is the role of AI in the creative process? How did AIVA progress from generating single notes to creating complex compositions? We go over the current role of humans in the loop who work with AIVA, and discuss the future of music.

Vibing her way into #63 is Vinaya! From Kenya
Finding Fertile Ground Podcast: Stories of Grit, Resilience, and Connection
This week I interviewed Jasnam Daya Singh, born in Brazil and a Latin Grammy-nominated concert and jazz pianist and brilliant composer. He is Sikh, after growing up Catholic. Jasnam is one of the kindest, most gentle people I know. Earlier this year, Jasnam led a 12-piece band in playing his composition, Ekta: The Unity Project. The piece embodies Jasnam’s musical interests but also expresses personal truths drawn from his journey as an immigrant and his conversion to Sikhism. You can listen to the composition on YouTube or on Spotify, or purchase it on BandCamp.Jasnam was born in a suburb of Rio De Janeiro to loving parents, and he lived there until he was 25. He began studying piano at seven. He always thought he might move to Europe. But in 1987, when a friend told him about life in Los Angeles, Jasnam decided to move there. He arrived in California with two pieces of luggage and $1,000, but on the second he had only $400 when the person hosting him rent free announced he had to pay rent and a deposit.Living in LA for 2-1/2 years, Jasnam worked all kinds of day jobs while gigging at night. In 1990, he landed a gig near Monterey, and when it became a full-time gig, he decided to move there. Living there for 20 years, he was able to do music full-time. He had a daughter with his first wife, and then he met his second wife in Monterey and they had a son together.When his son was a year and a half, his wife moved to Vancouver, WA, to get help from her parents. Jasnam joined them a few years later in 2008. Born as Weber Ribeiro Drummond, Jasnam has changed his name twice. In 1998, he adopted the last name Iago as an homage to the Roma people. Twenty years later, he changed his name to Jasnam Daya Singh with his initiation into the Sikh religion in 2009. “When I came across the teachings of Sikhi, they resonated with me...how universal the teachings are, the acceptance of all spiritual paths, and there’s one practice in Sikhi called Naam Simran, which is a constant remembrance of God...that idea of thinking of God with each breath really spoke to me...”Jasnam is drawn to the core beliefs of Sikhism: remembering God through all times of day, standing up for anyone who needs you; and selflessly sharing your wealth and resources.I asked Jasnam how people treat him in his turban. Unfortunately, people perceive turban-wearing Sikhs as threatening, foreign, and even as terrorists.“I wish they understood what a turban stands for. That very person who might be bullying us...could count on us if he or she needed something....we are the opposite of the threat they think we are...the turban represents social justice and equality.”In addition to wearing a turban, Sikhs carry five Ks, or kakars, on their body:Kachhera—a loose undergarmentKanga—a wooden comb, to take care of their hair (which they do not cut)Kara—an iron or steel bangleKes—uncut hair, honoring hair growth as the intent of the creatorKirpan—a ceremonial short sword or dagger“If you read about Sikh history, (you’ll see that) they have gone through persecution, injustice, violence against them, and they did not allow that to change who they are....Their hardship and resolve is part of what inspired me to become one as well.”

Well, hi there. We recorded this episode before we all got told to stay home. So it’ll be the last one until the time we can sit in the Artichoke Music Café again. Until then, as we did last week, we’ll make do with Skype and phone. Today I’m with composer/pianist Jasnam Daya Singh who has a new album on the PJCE label…that’s Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble. It’s called Ekta: The Unity Project. Sound like something we need right now? At the end of our conversation we’ll play a track, “Acceptance.” We’re not going to stop making Coffeeshop Conversations at Artichoke Music while we can’t really be at Artichoke Music
Mikolai Stroinski is a music composer that has worked on the Witcher 3, Dark Souls 2 trailer, Vanishing of Ethan Carter, and much more. We discuss: Think not just as a composer but as a video game maker as well. You don’t want to get too attached to your music because it might not fit the game. Trust your inner voice because it's a sign to either continue or stop composing. Study different music vocabularies and play lots of different games. Don't just study video game music. Be a good human being because good karma ricochets back to you. Don't think about just making money. Think about how you can contribute more and positively affect people's lives.

The smooth and relaxing rhythms most often associated with a cool New Orleans night form the basis of America's Classical Music: Jazz. Over the years as America fell in love with rock n roll, hip hop, punk rock or K-Pop, the jazz scene has always held a place in our nation in the 100 plus years since its creation. What makes jazz so special is that as it has grown and spread, it has molded with the world around it, creating different genres and moods that perfectly match the wide diversity in America. Each new generation offers a chance to create its own spin on the genre, further growing it for the worlds enjoyment. Our guest today is one of those next generation jazz musicians, Nora Stanley. Not even 24 years old, Nora is the latest jazz phenom on the Bay Area scene.

Hello and welcome to episode 032 of Sing! Dance! Act! Thrive!Today’s guest is Robert Carli, who is one of Canada’s busiest and most in-demand composers for Film & Television. His music has received numerous industry awards and nominations, including 20 Gemini and Canadian Screen Award nominations, 5 Gemini Awards and 3 Canadian Screen Awards. He is the recipient of several SOCAN Awards for domestic television.He is currently working on his 13th season of Shaftesbury Films’ MURDOCH MYSTERIES (CBC), and his 3rd season of FRANKIE DRAKE (CBC). Recent work includes the critically-acclaimed documentary TOXIC BEAUTY, his 3rd season of WYNONNA EARP, and the NETFLIX mini-series TOKYO TRIALS, while recent dramatic film work includes THE EDUCATION OF WILLIAM BOWMAN and SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD.I talk to Rob about the process of composing music for film and television and the advice he has for musicians wanting to get into it. Rob is also the co-author of a new book called The Awesome Music Project Canada: Songs of Hope and Happiness which brings you behind-the-scenes glimpses into the musical lives of a diverse array of Canadians. Singer-songwriter Michael Bublé celebrates the way music cemented his bond with his grandfather, renowned astronaut Chris Hadfield turned to music for comfort through the loss of a close friend and Grammy-award winner Sarah McLachlan used it to escape the torment of high-school bullies.These and other inspiring tales fill this beautifully illustrated tribute to the songs, musicians, and composers that comfort us, move us, and lift our spirits. Rounding out The Awesome Music Project Canada are descriptions of the neurological research confirming the ways in which music is good for us. It improves our mental, emotional and physical health, wards off loneliness and depression, and even delays dementia. To put it simply: music makes us feel good.Thanks for listening and if you are enjoying this podcast please share it with your fellow performing artists and entertainment fans.

Stefan's interview with composers Manami Matsumae (Megaman 1 & 10, Mighty No. 9, Shovel Knight) and Takahiro Izutani (Metal Gear Solid 4, MGS: Portable Ops, Bayonetta 1 & 2). Also featuring Alexander Aniel to help with translating! All three of them are with Brave Wave Productions. They were asked about their composer work from the various games, including their presence in Smash Bros. Alex got his Switch Lite out to check which songs were in the game! Stefan was given 20 minutes with all three of them. Alex and Takahiro helped with translating Manami's answers. It was a fairly casual interview with many translations, so it required heavy editing to flow well. This edit includes a second of Manami talking in Japanese before Alex translated. Hopefully this makes it easy to follow. The music is captured from Alex's copy of Smash Bros, so hopefully it's fair use! Radio edit aired 14th October 2019.

“When I was twenty I started to play my brother’s guitar, but I’m not left-handed. It was the only guitar that was at my house so I learned to play guitar with my left hand, so now I play with my left hand.” What sounds simple isn’t always so easy to do. Bruno Bavota creates music. What started with a left-handed guitar has turned into a neo-classical piano experience, with dashes of technology. In short, it’s Bruno’s own creation. According to Bruno, the strict interpretation of what a piano needed to sound like was a limitation in his hometown of Naples, Italy. “My fear was to be stuck all in classical music. My thought was to try to find my way, to play something that will be not classical, but try to play something else. I tried to make a link between the guitar and the piano.” This ‘link’ has continued onwards into a ‘web’ of his own expression and style. Bruno simply states, “I just started to think that to be myself I have to do my music… I started to compose my music and then let others listen outside of my town, and Italy”. Doing his music has led him to sign with the Temporal Residence record label, tour around Europe, and even become featured in an Apple video celebrating 20 years of design. He loves creating music for the profound emotional connection he creates with himself, and the listeners. “Some people write me and tell me, ‘Bruno, you know you helped me a lot. You help me to ‘win’ depression, to ‘win’ a bad day, to go on. I think that it’s the most beautiful thing and the real reward to what I’m doing… it’s to help people. This is beautiful, and I think I will do music forever for these reasons.” Bruno sees music as a natural medicine. After strolling along the ocean, or observing life, he gathers fresh feelings that translate into the beautiful melodies in which we can all enjoy. He is open to the thoughts and emotions that come his way, and is always looking for a new mixture, a new emotive stimulus to put into music. When he is playing and creating, Bruno knows there is something powerful if he begins to cry. He goes towards the feelings that create visceral and moving messages. How do you experience profound emotions? Explore BrunoBavota.com to listen to his music. Visit GregAlbritton.com/category/podcast for more information on the podcast host.

If you looked up the phrase "comic's comic," Wayne Federman's name should appear. For decades after the late great Gary Shandling cast Wayne as his brother in Larry Sanders Show, Shandling remained close friends with Wayne. While Federman is presently touring with Judd Apatow and has done so with Jimmy Fallon, and writes for both comics as well, he has started to compose theme music. After appearing in and on over fifty hit movies and television shows, including Legally Blonde, Knocked Up, X-Files, and The New Girl, Federman had no idea he'd become the composer for the new Employee of the Month's theme song! Dreams, you never dared to dream, can come true. Even though Wayne has worked throughout his career, we spoke about the uncertainty that befalls any artist.
