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!

Episode 3
This week, Matt and Zoe are hangin’ with RSO staff member and self-avowed choir nerd Victoria Cottrell to chat about composer Reena Esmail’s “She Will Transform You”. If you’re a fellow fan of choral music, you’re going to LOVE this piece, which was commissioned by the Symphony in 2018. Afterwards, Matt challenges Zoe and Victoria to a few rounds of classic music trivia, brought to you by Treesa Gold and her acclaimed “Treesa Ruins Classical Music” class. Play along with us and see how many you get right!
