Musician and composer (and former Chicagoan) Marcus Norris is the Chicago Philharmonic's new composer in residence. You can see his epic piece, “Glory,” performed in the Philharmonic's season opening production OUT OF THE SILENCE this Sunday (9/12) at the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts.   One of the things we talked at length about is how Classical music is a blind spot for people under the age of 60, myself included. He talks about how he discovered and fell in love with Classical, and how he approaches compositions.   As he mentions in the podcast, he'll be at the Out of the Silence performance on Sunday. Be sure to say hi!

Thief is based on real stories about post-natal depression. Framed as an interview via WhatsApp audio messages conducted by the author, a conversation becomes a confession of 3 women about their challenging and dark experiences of motherhood.

Fictional, but refreshingly raw.  “...So many fears… I need to protect her from so many things...And teach her so many things. Before, I only taught myself.

While the COVID-19 pandemic has touched virtually every aspect of our day-to-day lives, its impact on the performing arts has been especially significant. At the height of the pandemic, many theatres and other venues were closed, including all Broadway theatres in the U.S., and London's West End theatres, resulting in substantial financial losses. As restrictions loosened and theatres across the globe began to reopen, the challenge then was how to begin successfully and safely welcoming patrons back into performances. Researchers in the Netherlands created an optimization model that was implemented by the Music Building Eindhoven (MBE), enabling the venue to ultimately return to 70% total capacity for an evening's performances, resulting in significant financial benefit. Joining me to share their research, how the team came together, and the impact of their work once implemented is Frits Spieksma with the Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands.
