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
Here is the first part of an interview I did with the great drummer, Carlo Nuccio back in 2015.
in this segment Carlo talks about early experiences as a kid in New Orleans, dancing, tap dancing, events at his Father’s businesses, the music that he was into it, what the differences in perspective are to New Orleans music inside and outside of the city…and other things are imparted along the way.
