Episode 06: Getting the Song Out with Matthew Fava

Today we are switching things up from composers to a guest who is a huge advocate and supporter of composers.  Matthew Fava is the Director of the Ontario Region of the Canadian Music Centre, and sound clips featured on today’s podcast are taken from artists mentioned and recommended to us by Matthew during his interview. 

Based at the CMC in Toronto, Matthew is an outspoken supporter of female and female-identified composers and is a person that is welcoming to all creators.  His vision for the community, his thoughtfulness in his programming and his general awesomeness anytime we have worked with him, made him a perfect guest for our special episode of Getting the Song Out.
