July 19, 2019 - Mizzou International Composer's Festival, author Jocelyn Cullity

This week show host Diana Moxon talks new music with University of Missouri's Dr. Jacob Gotlib, member of the university's composition department and Managing Director of the upcoming Mizzou International Composer's Festival. In the second half of the show, Diana chats with author Jocelyn Cullity about her book 'Amah and the Silk-Winged Pigeons', set in northern India in 1857 during the infamous Siege of Lucknow, a brutal and shameful event in the history of Anglo-Indian relations and an event to which both Diana and Jocelyn have strong family ties.

What is Speaking of the Arts?

Speaking of the Arts is mid-Missouri's only weekly arts show. The show is hosted by Diana Moxon, who chats with actors, directors, authors, musicians, festival directors, event organizers, arts curators, and artists about the events they are involved in and also about their own works and their influences. Whilst the show focuses mainly on the mid-Missouri arts scene, Diana's guests have included international composers, conductors, authors as well as artists, musicians, and performers from around Missouri.
