These are the critical mindset shifts that we NEED to embrace to reach new audiences and keep them coming back.

Conductor George Marriner Maull and the Discovery Orchestra are teaching audiences to...Listen to Music!
In a time when we tend to hear music in the background, we’ve lost (or never learned) the skill of listening to music. How many of your audience members are reading the program notes or lost in thoughts about green beans? Probably most of them. Today we are learning how to teach our audience to listen.
The unabridged episode is no longer available, but you can still visit our Patreon community
Today we discuss:
- The origin of the Discovery Orchestra, an orchestra that exclusively performs educational concerts
- The format of the Discovery Concerts and how Maestro Maull teaches audiences how to listen to classical music
- How learning to listen well through classical music enhances all the music that audiences listen to
- The most effective pieces Maestro Maull has found for teaching audiences to listen
- Maestro Maull’s closing advice, billboard, and hidden gems

David Itkin joins us this week on Podium Time. Maestro Itkin is the Director of Orchestras at the University of North Texas, Music Director of the Abilene Philharmonic, and Conductor Laureate of the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra.
Today we discuss the stories behind his first book, Conducting Concerti, and why it’s critical to learn how to accompany a soloist well. We also discuss the many drawbacks of focusing your study on just musicality or conducting technique. Finally, David gives us a sneak peek of his new book planned for 2022. The book features a curriculum for learning and practicing crucial conducting excerpts.
Today we discuss:
- Why David Itkin wrote a book about Conducting Concerti, and why what we’re really good at is often what we used to be really bad at. (05:09)
- Navigating the psychology of preparing a concerto with the soloist and orchestra. (09:43)
- The most common issues that David Itkin has to fix with workshop participants, and how to be prepared to get the most out of your session with a conducting teacher and ensemble. (19:44)
- How the conducting program at UNT is designed to prepare a conductor to enter the professional world by including preparation for Pops and Education concerts for conducting students. (33:30)
- A conducting workshop between two covers: A sneak peek of David Itkin’s new book of advanced musical and technical issues in the orchestral repertoire, including a reduction of each example for use in the classroom. (42:38)
- Hidden Gems and Final Advice. (56:07)

Today we talk with John Devlin, Music Director of the Wheeling Symphony Orchestra, host of the Upbeat Podcast, and a founding contributor to EverythingConducting.com. Today we talk about how to be the least-generic version of yourself, how to design a commissioning project that’s supremely exciting and relevant to your orchestra and audiences, and how innovative concert design can elevate your performances from just another classical concert to an experience.
Today we discuss:
- How to develop the least-generic version of yourself to stand out in an applicant pool of 300 other conductors and make a greater impact for your orchestra and your community (8:05)
- How John created “Gourmet Symphony” by melding all aspects of the experience of fine-dining with a symphony concert, and why smaller orchestras should focus more on creating an experience rather than sacrificing innovation to just play slightly better (20:23)
- How you can take a commission one step farther to make it relevant and significant to the composer, the orchestra, and the community (31:24)
- The origins of John’s focus on innovative concert design, and why it’s so easy to be bored with the average orchestra concert (35:27)
- How John and the Wheeling Symphony are thriving during COVID-19 by being creative and asking what they can do well within guidelines (40:39)
- John’s favorite living composer, and the life-changing advice he got from Marin Alsop (53:49)

Building audience diversity is not about PR programs, Black History Month concerts, or playing diverse composers on a few programs.
It's about not reducing an entire population in our community to the color of their skin.
Building audience diversity is about realizing that "diversity" is more nuanced. It's about realizing that we connect by building relationships.
It's about not Expensive PR campaigns that attract diverse audiences to a single concert (if at all). These don't result in lasting change because diverse audiences don't feel welcome in our art form. They may know that we are having a concert, but they do not care.
Even the fact that we refer to diverse audiences as "they" in these paragraphs makes it clear that this discussion is long overdue.
Today, we talk with Jeri Lynne Johnson about her consulting work with DEI Arts Consulting and how they take classical music organizations through the process of understanding diversity. She shares why standard "diversity" programs aren't effective, what actually motivates diverse audiences to attend events, and how telling diverse stories in the arts is the key to equity and inclusion for the rest of our culture.
Learn more about Jeri Lynne at JeriLynneJohnson.com, DEI Arts Consulting at DEIArtsConsulting.com, and the Black Pearl Chamber Orchestra at BlackPearlCO.org.
00:00 Intro
01:30 Jeri's DEI Arts Consulting practice and why diversity consulting is not about a one-time fix
03:14 Redefining "Diversity" and what organizations, especially classical music organizations, get wrong about diversity, equity, and inclusion.
10:22 Diversity beyond race and building relationships with your community
18:44 Black Pearl Chamber Orchestra: how it developed from a need to engage audiences of color and change what orchestras were offering.
23:56 The importance of diversity on the stage and the role it plays in the diversity of the audience
27:19 Closing and Plugs
