Opus 280 - "The Next Festival" (feat. Peter Askim)

Peter Askim is transforming the way the next generation of artists are entering the orchestral field with a summer festival celebrated for its "pay what you can" model that eliminates what, for many, was a primary barrier to entry into this vital aspect of a musician's artistic and professional development. Peter joins Loki to talk about this festival, his entry into the world of conducting, and how he's centering music by immigrant women in his celebration of America's 250th.
