A Conversation with Composer/Performer Missy Mazzoli
Editor’s note: Many thanks to Patrick Burke and Missy Mazzoli for participating in our first ever (successfully recorded) video chat. We’ve been trying to work this feature into the blog for a while now and I can’t think of a better way to introduce it than the conversation that follows. Enjoy!
Missy Mazzoli, a New York composer, comes to Pittsburgh with her group Victoire for their first performance outside of NYC. I interviewed her via Skype to talk about the group, the music, genre, and women in music, among other things.
