Such a great podcast. Matt’s line of questioning give so much insight into the world of composers and what the industry is truly like.
I’m very creative and artistic but not musically inclined so I am very impressed by those who have the talent to compose music. On that note, I think “Composer Talk” was really fun and fascinating and Matthew does a terrific podcast!
I love the genuine approach from a musician / composer’s perspective. The enthusiasm is out of the park! Very inspiring for young musicians and artists who NEED to be pushed into doing more.
