From the Margins: What Music Theory Doesn't Want You To Know
Ep. 8: The Art vs. The Artist
In this episode, we talk about disentangling (or conflating) the ART versus the ARTIST and how to deal with such challenges in our daily lives. For example, we talk about JK Rowling, Schenker, Alma Mahler, Richard Wagner, Chris Brown, and Dr. Luke, and ways in which we navigate teaching, reading, performing, programming, buying, and listening to their work ... or choosing NOT to engage with it. Of course, there is no single one right answer that will work for everybody, but there is a single wrong answer: to do/say nothing.
"Silence in the face of injustice is complicity with the oppressor." - Ginetta Sagan.
This episode features clips from Zoe Keating's "The Path," Ethel Smyth's Der Wald, and Beyoncé's "Run the World (Girls)".
