In the season finale of TACOTalk, producer Mark Zaki interviews ACO Artistic Director Thomas Crawford about his musical journey from ear-splitting rock bands to jazz improv to his decision to build a career in classical music.
Talking about his eclectic taste in music, Tom describes the goosebumps he felt at his first listen to Paul McCartney’s “Yesterday,” and his first experience rehearsing with period instrument players, when after just one bar he was so overcome with emotion at the sound, he had to step off the podium.
