Composer's Studio
Join hosts Anna Linvill, and Tarik Ghiradella for conversations with contemporary composers about music, life, and what’s happening in the genre defying world of classical music today. The Composer’s Studio is a place where living art is made, a place without boundaries where inspiration can come from anywhere from birdsong to heavy metal, Vivaldi to the hum of a vacuum cleaner. Classical composers today are no longer confined to the concert stage or the cathedral but contribute to film scores, television commercials, video game soundtracks and beyond. From graduate students to Grammy winners, this is a classical music show like none you have ever heard. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to join the conversation and find out about upcoming guests and performances.

Lanette Lind - The Music Must Serve the Story
•
Season 1
•
Episode 26
Beloved Raleigh pianist, pedagogue, and composer Lanette Lind did not set out to be a composer, but one commission led to another, and another, and another. As a masterful pianist, competent in many styles, Lanette does not subscribe to any one compositional technique or ethos--just that the music must serve the story. Whether writing for children or adults, she approaches her task like a storyteller looking for the words that will cut through the distractions of the mind and reach straight into the heart. What higher compliment can a composer receive than to capture the imaginations of children?
