“Will this show ever return?? Listening to this show made my heart swell and my brain explode with every episode. I definitely cried at work listening with my headphones on more than once and had to hide my eyes. For those of us who can’t afford symphony tickets, this is a blessing.”

“I love this show. My boyfriend is a contemporary composer and really I started listening because I loved him, not the music... but my heart expanded! Nadia tells such a great story together with the composers she interviews, everything is contextualised and made accessible and interesting.”

“As a voracious podcast listener and an avid consumer of music of all types, I can attest that Nadia's podcast is truly a gem. What Krista Tippett's show does to the world of faith and spirituality, Nadia does to the world of music. Nobody out there delves so deeply, lovingly, and...”Read full review »

“I first heard about this podcast from another podcast, RadioLab. Needless to say, after that small taste, I wanted more, and I have yet to be disappointed. Nadia is smart, insightful, a great storyteller, and an even more sensitive musician.
The show is thoughtfully constructed and well...”Read full review »

“The thing I love the must about MTC is how the music works with the script. I am not sure if it is on purpose but it is great! This podcast teaches so much about those great composers and their path, how their music was developed and how they translated their histories and personalities into...”Read full review »

“I never understood the contemporary pieces I played in high school ensembles; they always seemed discordant and chaotic, the complete oppositie of what I thought music embodied. But MTC brings these pieces down from their seemingly lofty position and places it within context without getting too...”Read full review »
