In this episode, we had the honor to speak with award-winning conductor Michael Repper. With work spanning five continents, Repper has an international reputation for engaging and exciting audiences of all spectrums, and for promoting new and diverse musical talents.

In 2023, Michael became the youngest North American conductor to win a Grammy Award in Best Orchestral Performance for his album with the New York Youth Symphony, marking the first time a youth orchestra achieved this milestone. He currently is the Music Director of the Ashland Symphony Orchestra, Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra, and the Northern Neck Orchestra of Virginia.

Michael speaks with us about his musical upbringing, the similarities between conducting and educating, and his approach to exposing young musicians to local, contemporary artists. He also shares with us the process of recording his critically-acclaimed album with the New York Youth Symphony.

Tune in to learn more about Michael's story and his commitment to the community-building power of the arts!
