What's Not There: Episode 5 (Michael Morgan‪)‬ What's Not There

This week, Stefano Flavoni sits down with Michael Morgan, music director of the Oakland Symphony for the past thirty years, to discuss his perspectives on the classical music industry, both as the protege of some of the greatest musicians of all time (including Georg Solti, Leonard Bernstein, and Seiji Ozawa) and as one of the most prominent living African-American musicians. Maestro Morgan has appeared with some of the most prominent music institutions, including the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, New York Philharmonic, New York City Opera, San Francisco Symphony, Vienna State Opera, and more. He is also the face and brain behind San Francisco Symphony's "Currents" series, which examines the cultural diversity and artistic sound worlds of the Bay Area and United States at large.
