S2E9 - He goes by many names. Hannibal Lector, Dr. Robert Ford, and sometimes even Anthony Hopkins. But there is another title that needs to be added: Maestro. That's right. Our favorite Sir Anthony Hopkins has become a composer. On this episode, the Season 2 finale, the trio does a cursory analysis of his recent compositions, as well as explores the world of genre-crossing celebrities. Afterwards, Will interviews composer and collaboration enthusiast Tom Morrison.
Special Note: This episode was recorded prior to the recent passing of composer Christopher Rouse. As Will and Tom mention Rouse during their conversation, we wanted to acknowledge his incredible influence as both a composer and person. We at Adagio For Things highly encourage you to give his music a listen.

Then, Michael speaks with composer Fjóla Evans about their experiences as both a writer and cellist.

S2E5 - "Why you so obsessed with me?" Mariah, embodying the spirit of classical music, was most certainly speaking to right wing institutions. On this episode, the hosts dissect the conservative establishment's love of past music, and their thoughts (or hatred?) of new music. This is in no way a blanket statement, but rather a look into several examples that have surfaced. After the discussion, Michael chats with composer Michael Seltenreich. The artist shares a story of incredible coincidences that is not to be missed.

S2E4 - As much as we may want to imagine that the arts are free from the affects of something as mundane as money, it is sadly not the case. This truth can be seen notably in the classical music realm. Are academic institutions making an effort to make the study of music more accessible? Are concert halls keeping different socioeconomic classes in mind when they set ticket prices? After attempting to tackle these questions, Michael chats with composer Susanna Hancock about life, her career of many faces, and the success of her food-infused concert series, Terroir New Music.
