CAN SOMEONE GIVE ME AN A?: A Richmond Symphonicast
Welcome to Richmond Symphony's very own podcast! (We know you're excited, but we insist you hold your applause for the end, please.) Join hosts Matt Gold, (Orchestra Librarian/sometimes-symphony-bass player) and Zoe Thomas (Patron Services Assistant) as they chat with special guests, react to fascinating pieces of music, and endeavor to make classical music fun and accessible! Each episode will provide a multi-faceted look at the goings-on of both the Richmond Symphony and the classical music scene as a whole. We look forward to bringing home everything that makes us feel so fortunate to say that we work for Richmond Symphony. Have feedback? We'd love to hear from you.
