Music can capture a moment in time, or influence that time and every one after.
My guest today is Richard Hornsby, organizer of the New Brunswick Summer Music Festival, an annual celebration of classical composition and performance. He joins me to talk about the inspirations behind this year’s theme: The Roaring 20’s! We also discuss musical influences, the changing landscape at the time, and the many ways that practical concerns change music.
The NBSMF runs from August 3 to 15, with the main series of concerts happening each night from August 13-15 at Memorial Hall. The first concert is coming up this weekend, with a free performance by Steven Peacock and Howard Baer at the Picaroon’s Roundhouse at 6pm. See the full lineup on our calendar, or at the NBSMF website.
