Episode 476
Monday, 1 June, 2026

In the second half of our conversation with conductor, composer and producer Peter Askim, we take a deeper look at his efforts to champion living composers through initiatives like the NC State 10-Year Premiere Project. Askim discusses the importance of creating opportunities for emerging voices, building lasting relationships between composers and performers, and finding new ways to connect audiences with contemporary music. He also reflects on the evolving role of orchestras in the 21st century and the future of new music.MUSICEchoes From Our Digital World by Trevor NewTiled Fields by James BudinichBeacons for Chamber Orchestra by Ahmed Al AbacaEpisodes by Chris Boardman
