A conversation with Phillip Bimstein.  A former mayor of Springdale, Utah outside Zion National Park, Bimstein is an Emmy award-winning musician and composer threaded through many genres, including classical, experimental, punk rock, and folk music. His alternative classical compositions have been performed by soloists, chamber ensembles and orchestras, at, among other venues, Carnegie Hall, the Lincoln and Kennedy Centers, and the Spoleto and Aspen Festivals, among others. A certified mindfulness teacher, he designs and teaches unique arts and humanities courses at the University of Utah's Honors College. This past summer, he taught at the U's Asia Campus in Korea.
