Show Notes
The pandemic halted all in-person performing arts in the last year: a "big hole to crawl back out of," says Marin Alsop, music director of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. Alsop talks with Josh Sharfstein about what's been lost during a period of "emotional stasis," but also how the pandemic, alongside the Black Lives Matter and Me Too movements, offer the chance for much-needed change for and modernization of the orchestral performing arts.
