Dear Nobody, let's talk about the arts.
Last week, a viral statement from Timothée Chalamet about the "irrelevance" of ballet and opera sent shockwaves through the classical music community. In this episode, Sally breaks down the hour-long interview that started it all and explores why these "ancient" art forms are anything but dead.
From the magic of live performance that can never be replicated to the harsh financial realities of modern concert halls, this is a deep dive into why we still do what we do. Sally also shares a personal update on her graduation recital prep, including how a piece she initially resisted became a source of unexpected joy and a reminder that exposure is often the key to resonance. This isn't just a response to a celebrity's comments—it’s a letter to everyone who creates because they have heart for their art, not just an eye for the money.
