New Zealand American cellist and professor of cello at the University of Idaho (making her my favorite Vandal) chats with Emily about, well, lots of stuff. This is a pretty special episode, as I've been a fan of Miranda's work forever, and we have both written for Strings for a long time. I had to have her on because her new book, Notes for Cellists is an absolute banger. Like most of the better episodes, this one is all over the place! Buckle up and enjoy. :)
