TRILLOQUY

Shelley Washington lives at the intersections of many "boths" and has written a piece that explores it. She joins Garrett (1:02:00) to discuss the duality of her existence, mental health, and what it's like being a composer at these intersections. Scott celebrates Indigenous Peoples' Day with "Navajo Piano", Garrett shares some African drumming, and the guys discuss the week in news.

What is TRILLOQUY?

CLASSICAL MUSIC has been misappropriated as a musical genre and a culture rooted in the aesthetics of Western Europe.
TRILLOQUY is the weekly podcast built to DECOLONIZE the traditional definitions and conversations surrounding CLASSICAL MUSIC.
