We continue our week of episodes recorded in front of an audience at The Overlook Live with Asheville Symphony Orchestra music director Darko Butorac.We talk about how the orchestra pivoted this season after city officials deemed Thomas Wolfe Auditorium uninhabitable because of outdated and nonfunctional infrastructure. I ask why this orchestra only performs monthly programs and why he and other symphonic orchestra directors don't look to collaborate more with contemporary rock (special nod to Tool) and pop composers.Photo by Meredith Katz.Get five news headlines from around Asheville in your morning inbox.

NOTE: This is the second in our two-part look at the outlook of the Asheville Symphony Orchestra during and after the Coronavirus pandemic. Since the order to shelter in place, Darko Butorac has stayed at his Asheville home, trying to remain creative during the pandemic while pondering the future of classical music after it--not just for the Asheville Symphony but for large orchestras everywhere. "The experience will change. This is too big to simply ignore and say we're going back to live (concert) situations," Butorac said. "So I think the changes might be in terms of how we approach concerts and how we communicate with audiences." Butorac is in his second season as music director in Asheville. He said his third season and almost certainly his fourth will be programmatically and, perhaps, even functionally shaped by the pandemic. The orchestra is planning and printing a brochure for its 2021 season at Thomas Wolfe Auditorium, which it hopes to launch next February.

NOTE: This is the first in our two-part look at the outlook of the Asheville Symphony Orchestra during and after the Coronavirus pandemic. Darko Butorac is known as a musician and conductor. People didn't know him as a poet or video editor until a few weeks ago, when he produced what the orchestra called a "Musical Love Letter to Asheville." The video features a number of Asheville Symphony Orchestra musicians, from their separate homes, performing "Ashokan Farewell" by Jay Ungar. Board member Bill Gettys gives voice to Butorac's poem. "The idea behind the video was to go beyond just having a musical performance, but really being a love letter to all of Asheville," Butorac said. "Not just the classical music lovers, but to all of our community."

I have interviewed Darko Butorac, Music Director of the Missoula Symphony Orchestra, many times over the years. In fact during this interview we estimated probably around sixty times. This was the last interview before Darko heads off to his new position with the Asheville, North Carolina Symphony. He talks about his last two concerts this weekend and takes the time to thank The Trail 103.3 for our support. We'll miss you Darko. Craig

We’re wrapping up our interview with author, corporate speaker, and double bassist Justin Locke today. Justin is the author of Real Men Don’t Rehearse, a book filled with wonderful anecdotes about his life in the music business. Justin was a freelance double bassist in the Boston area for nearly two decades, working regularly during that time with the Boston Pops and other area ensembles. We began this interview on CBC 50 back in December 2007, so check out this episode for tales from Justin’s early years playing the bass and getting started on the Boston freelance scene. Justin shares some absolutely delicious stories from his book on this episode, and we also chat about how Justin came to develop his family concerts Peter VS the Wolf and The Phantom of the Orchestra. The Missoula Symphony recently performed Peter VS the Wolf, which was reviewed here in the Missoulian. Missoula arts critic Rob Chaney writes: The Missoula Symphony Orchestra unanimously convicted a canine predator of duckicide Friday, despite strong indications from the community that the suspect was innocent. Two packed theater-fulls of area fourth-graders were deeply divided in their verdict at the end of “Peter Versus The Wolf,” although they generally professed amusement at what was essentially a show trial. Symphony conductor Darko Butorac confessed afterward that the whole presentation was a ploy to entice local youth into greater interest in music. According to court records compiled by composer Sergei Prokofiev, David “Wolf” Mills-Low was accused of duckicide for allegedly devouring a semi-domesticated mallard “in a single gulp.” A farm boy named Peter (aka Eric Wills) was the chief witness. He testified that he was preventing a cat from eating a bird when Wolf made his unprovoked attack on the duck. Check out a video of the Missoula Symphony performing Justin’s concert program here. Justin also shares some really excellent advice for performing musicians on how they can better market themselves to contractors and the general public. Enjoy!
