Stupid Pianist George Wu Teng
-
- Arte
He's got two degrees from prestigious music conservatories, is currently working on a doctorate, and likes to complain loudly about Debussy.
Join your astoundingly eloquent and endlessly charismatic host George as he breaks down significant classical music peoples, pieces, periods, and practices, or just rambles about that time he forgot his dress shoes at home and had to perform in rain boots.
Part music history, part over-caffeinated guinea pig, with new episodes every other Saturday night because the host has absolutely no social life, and this totally isn't a cry for help.

#2: John Milton, Nikolai Medtner, and Fish Tacos
What's the English author of Paradise Lost got to do with a Russian 19th-and-20th century piano composer? Apparently, according to George, quite a lot. We'll be discussing the life of John Milton and Nikolai Medtner, Paradise Lost itself, and Medtner's similarly unsurpassable Night Wind Sonata.
George also rambles about how he's built different, has an above-genius-level IQ, and left his amazing fish tacos out to rot when he went to bed.

Welcome to the Stupid Pianist Podcast's inaugural first episode!
