  • Please Come Back!

    Love your podcast and love having local SoCal celebrities be so accessible and forthcoming on this podcast format! I especially love Akiko’s perspective on being the assistant to the first associate concertmaster, and all of the other titles associated with her! Please come back! Also, how about an episode related to community orchestras?

  • entertainment for music nerd everywhere

    I love their insights and really empathize with how difficult it is to balance work (music-related or not) with parenting small children. They are both great musicians and intelligent interlocutors of music.

  • Nerdy, informative, fun!

    I really enjoy this show. Nathan is so knowledgeable, and I find Akiko’s self deprecation to be hilarious. Valuable show for anyone currently in or wanting to be part of a symphony.
