    The podcast format is a great medium for combining both words and music. Wish there were more episodes? Seemed like more composers were planned according to the intro. Please continue and do more composers! more

  • Delightful and insightful

    I am both a history buff and a fan of classical music. I’ve often wished I knew more about the lives of composers and voila - wish granted! This podcast dives deep into the pivotal moments of the lives of composers and the music that flowed from those moments. The hosts are delightfully adept at weaving the histories and music together in insightful and memorable ways. Best of all, the episodes all have their own built in soundtracks. more
