TiA 108: The Fearless Classical Influencer - Dacia Clay
- 20 July 2020 -
TECH IN ART: Performance on the Digital Stage with Ward Holmquist
These and a host of similar questions are being posed by thoughtful music lovers as the audience for traditional classical artists, groups and organizations steadily implodes.
And then there’s Dacia Clay.
A library science graduate with a decidedly egalitarian world view, whose secret desire was to work in public radio. Her quest began when she got her first break in front of a mic, having her “beginner” questions about classical music answered by the performers and educators whose music she catalogued for NPR station KUHF in Houston, Texas.
Her quest turned into a podcast, ClassicalClassroomShow.com. Now over 279 episodes and counting, her inquisitiveness has brought forth many interesting interviews with leading artists, by asking intelligent, intriguing questions about a wide variety of topics, and delightfully encapsulating the experiences in bite-sized episodes.
Her work is the motherlode example of classical music relevancy and education.
