Right now on the Arts Alive podcast: we’re hanging out in the string section with violinists Daniel Hope and Lisa Batiashvili. Hope tells us why he re-imagined Vivaldi and fell in love with readio. Batiashvili talks about tackling one of Tchaikovsky’s toughest concertos and why we should always turn to Bach. Plus, some Renaissance painters had employees finish their work, have composers ever done the same? We Ask the Dean. All that and more on the Arts Alive podcast.
