Our first-ever guest interview is a mega-episode! This week, Rhiannon is joined by Tay Clarke, a choral educator and all-around wonderful human, who gives us some insight on the history of choirs and choral music. We begin in Ancient Greece, discuss some important developments throughout the centuries, and talk about the choir scene these days. Many thanks to Tay for agreeing to come on the tell and talk to me! Royalty-free music courtesy of pixabay.com.
