Composer Christopher Cerrone joins us as our first guest in the first episode of our new sub-series - Composers Drinking Whisky! In this episode, Chris talks with us about the genesis of his opera "Invisible Cities" (for which he was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize!), the path that led him towards classical composing, and all kinds of other interesting things! Listen all the way through, and not only will you hear sneak peaks of some of his works in progress, but you will also hear the greatest analogy ever made between listening and assembling Ikea furniture!
