This podcast will feature interviews done by Jonathan Freilich with notable figures that relate in some way to the current vibrancy of the New Orleans music scene and community. It seeks to form a dialogue between ideas and motivations behind the music and the relationship of those ideas to the sound artifact being presented. The podcast will also address what the state of understanding is in audiences and whether understanding is relevant to the "success" of the musical artwork. Older interviews and further information can be found at www.jonathanfreilich.com
This was labeled as part 3 for years. I am thankful to a conscientious listener for pointing this out. Here now is part 4 which contains many intriguing things on neighborhood politics from that period which has only progressed. Other things too. Perhaps I will label it soon. But it’s highly worth a listen.
