Author: NOI+F podcast by Robert Lintott June 3, 2016 Duration: 15:03
Welcome to the National Orchestral Institute and Festival’s podcast series. Throughout this year’s edition of NOI we will be sitting down with visiting artists, administrators, composers, and participants in the festival for brief question and answer sessions to get their take on the state of music in 2016. Today I got the chance to talk to Jim Undercofler about what it takes to succeed in music. Jim is the former Dean of the Eastman School of Music, former President and CEO of the Philadelphia Orchestra, and recent past director of NOI. He is currently the acting dean of the school of music at SUNY Purchase.

At the University of Maryland, NOI+F: National Orchestral Institute and Festival gathers exceptional young musicians each summer for an intensive orchestral program. This audio series, hosted by Robert Lintott, pulls back the curtain on that vibrant creative world. Rather than focusing on performance recordings, the podcast offers intimate conversations with the composers, guest artists, and organizational minds who shape the festival's journey. These are brief, focused dialogues that delve into their creative processes, personal paths in music, and their perspectives on the evolving landscape of classical music. Listeners gain a backstage pass to the ideas and passions driving one of the region's most anticipated musical events. Through these genuine discussions, the NOI+F podcast provides a unique window into the life, challenges, and inspirations of today's musical artists, connecting the energy of the festival to anyone curious about the people behind the music. It’s a chance to hear directly from voices at the forefront of the field, discussing not just their work at the institute but the broader state of their art form.
