Our partners at Naxos bring the music of living composers to diverse audiences through their recordings. But did you know that they also create a wide array of free educational and listener engagement offerings? These multimedia efforts, from podcasts and online video channels to live-streamed interviews, illuminate the cultural backdrop and inner workings of great music and bring artists into contact with listeners around the world.

In July 2022, Naxos hosted live Q+A sessions with American composers Peter Boyer and William McClelland. The recorded video from these talks lives on, available in perpetuity via YouTube.

Check out this interview with McClelland, whose first record for the label made its debut in July 2022. Topics include poetry, family, collaboration, and even environmentalism, as well as - of course - music, in all its glory!
