Being Nannerl Mozart - OFFBEAT Special

DOWNLOAD BEING NANNERL MOZART HERE

As I wrote in an earlier post, I have been immersed in the life of Mozart's sister, Nannerl. While she is the subject of a larger work that is still in progress, I will be discussing Nannerl on Offbeat this week. Available to download from the OFFBEAT PODCAST PAGE, "Being Nannerl Mozart" is a glimpse into the life of one of the most fascinating characters in music history, the sister of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

The Bishops School Pune

Being a teacher in The Bishops School - The best job I ever had!
It was surreal - strange. One minute I was celebrating the result of my school leaving examination with fellow classmates, giggling and laughing with the kind of abandon that can only come from still being in school. Scribbling on the uniform of another classmate, in permanent marker while still dressed in the hideous green sack that we called our school uniform.

Get in touch

I just received a message from someone who was trying to find a way to send a message about a previous post AND a previous radio program, and found it impossible to figure out how to do so. So........

Glenn Gould Circus

Everyone wants a piece of Glenn Gould, even though he passed away twenty seven years ago. He continues to attract as much attention now as he did when he was alive, and while his legacy of recordings aer, in part, responsible for his continued appeal amongst listeners of all ages, fellow musicians and journalists, there are so many other factors that are responsible for his unwavering popularity and, in some cases notoriety.
When I stumbled upon Gould purely by chance over fifteen years ago as a little kid in India, I had no idea that in a few years I would encounter, and later be a part of the circus that surrounds Glenn Gould's legacy.
