Listen "Elena Kats-Chernin - Do The Instruments We Use Influence The Songs We Create?"
Episode Synopsis
Today’s guest is pianist and composer Elena Kats-Chernin! Best known for her opera, Wild Swans, Elena also creates orchestral works, solo pieces, as well as music for various mediums from dance to film. You’ll recognize works such as Clocks, Book of Rags, and Orpheus/Odysseus/Poppea. On this episode we talk about focusing on what you will do today instead of what you did yesterday, snippets of old pieces becoming part of something new, and improvising live. We also talk about if tools influence the work, being a working composer, and not reading to save your eyesight.
