Exceptional musicianship, exceptional education
As a professional musician and educator, and as a listener who simply enjoys good storytelling, I am delighted with this podcast! The sequence of description, analysis, and example are spot on for every idea. Episodes are very well produced. My form and analysis students are now required to listen to the On the Waterfront episode as part of a unit on Bernstein. I suspect some of those students will become regular listeners and will be delighted and enriched through listening and learning. Thank you to the creators for making this exceptional podcast!

I don’t know anything about music or movie making, but I like to think this show has made me more knowledgeable about how a score fits in to my enjoyment of a movie. Jon and Andy found the perfect mix of knowledge, humor and passion for their subject.
