About

Clarinetist Alex Laing joins Peter Dugan at the Atlanta Music Project for a program featuring musicians from Georgia! We hear the fantastic Atlanta Music Project Senior Youth Choir performing a Spiritual. A flutist shares her love for Eastern European Folk music, a percussionist performs Sibelius on marimba, and Peter collaborates on a gorgeous four handed Ravel with an alum.

We are grateful to Atlanta Music Project for hosting the recording of this episode. Atlanta Music Project is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that operates in under-resourced communities to provide world-class music training and performance opportunities that support youth growth and development.
