Episode 07: Getting the Song Out with Matthew Fava (Part Two)

Today is the second part of our interview with Matthew Fava - Director of the Ontario Region of the Canadian Music Centre, recorded back in July 2020 at the height of the COVID-19 shut down in Ontario. 

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 two-part episode of Getting the Song Out.
