Today we sit down with the Colorado Symphony’s Chief Artistic Officer Tony Pierce to discuss how the season is put together, how to secure soloists like Yo-Yo Ma and Itzhak Perlman, and how they decide on what guest conductors to invite back. Tony also shares some of the CSO’s most exciting concerts coming this season, including the premier of a new genre!

54 min - PT28: Should I Pursue Band or Orchestral Conducting?The Podium Time audience has spoken! Luke and I are incorporating shorter discussion episodes into this second season and the listeners (accidentally) decided on the first topic. The question that we've been sent the most by our listeners is...drum-roll... whether one should pursue a master's in band or orchestral conducting! Today, Luke and I sit down to chat through the different options in terms of style, range of groups, and repertoire, as well as how you can get a bit of experience in both.
