GUEST: MASON BATES / COMPOSER & CO-CREATOR
David speaks with Composer Mason Bates about his new animated film PHILHARMONIA FANTASTIQUE The Making of the Orchestra. The film takes the audience inside the music, by way of Sprite, who takes the viewer on a melodious tour through the instruments of an orchestra. It must be seen to be believed, and defies description. The result is a glorious meeting and explosion of musical and visual creativity. A feast for the eyes and ears.
The film is a collaboration with Oscar-winning director/sound designer Gary Rydstrom and animator/writer Jim Capobianco.
In addition to the film, the ambitious project includes a recording with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra conducted by Edwin Outwater available here, and an upcoming schedule of live performances including:
11/12/22 Louisville Orchestra
1/21/23 Nashville Symphony
1/29/23 Kansas City Symphony
