Pitch and Tonic is an online music journal to spark discussions that need to be talked about in the music community. The co-founders of Pitch and Tonic, met during music school and felt there was a need for a music journal that talks about more than the "classic" route to success. The world of music does not look like it did a hundred years ago, it doesn’t even look like what it did fifty years ago, so why do we still treat it the same? Pitch and Tonic will be releasing weekly podcasts Mondays!

    Episode 04: If Composers were a Drink

    We get a little spicy in this episode, so here is your warning. In this episode, we assign composers a drink based on their vibe. some composers were really easy to pin down, and others were tough to figure out. This is our opinion on the composers' vibe and you might think otherwise. Here are the composers we talk about in order: Mozart Hildur guðnadóttir Charles Ives Takemitsu Kate Soper Aphex Twin benjamin Britten Puccini Borodin Webern Schubert Daddy Bach Satie Debussy Stockhausen JCE Bach Samuel Barber Chopin Philip Glass Scarlatti Florence Beatrice Price Handel Pauline Oliveros Stravinsky Nico Muley Sufjan Stevens David Lang Bario Strauss Fanny Mendelssohn Xenakis Amy Beach Julias Eastman
