Dina König-the queen of baroque hearts

In this episode I was lucky having the opportunity to talk to one of the most amazing personalities I have met in my life. Dina König, now Picon, used to be a brilliant singer and is now a Tramway driver and a happy person. We talked about the hardships of the road as a professional musician and why the courage to do what we do can fade. We talked openly about the things that are taboo for most professional musicians: Money, the atmosphere in a musician's collective, sexism.

Om Podcasten

Hello dear friends! Welcome to our brand new podcast dedicated to sight-reading. Why sight-reading? We want to show the behind-the-scenes of music-making. We begin each episode with our initial thoughts on a new score as well as musings about style, aesthetics, and instruments. We challenge ourselves to apply our understanding of historical practices to achieve a more musical reading of a given text. Whether you are amateur musicians looking for tips on sight-reading and insight into historical performance or a seasoned musician, we would be happy if you joined us.
