Quartet for Two – The Classical Music Game
+ Read moreQuartet for Two is a light-hearted game about composers and an excuse to talk about music in a silly and opinionated way. Presented by composer Arthur Keegan and radio producer David Fay, the format allows playful discussion of classical music through the ages – littered with mistakes and half-baked opinions.
The game is inspired by QuartetTM the Composer Card Game © 2023 Margit van der Zwan. Buy this beautiful and brilliant game at www.quartetgames.com
Game play:
We use a deck of cards each featuring a composer from the 9th Century right up to the present. We draw a card each, discuss the composers and their music and then – using whatever metric we like – decide who goes through to the next round. There are also some silly wild cards thrown in to mess things up. The point isn’t who wins the game (it’s usually Bach) but just having a fun time thinking and chatting about great music.

The Process: a podcast about creativity and making music
+ Read moreIn a world where maybe no one is listening, outcomes and accolades for contemporary classical composers can seem far and few between. Therefore composers must embrace the one thing they will always have complete control over: the process. This podcast aims to understand this creative process by listening to new works and discussing them with their creators. Each episode focuses on one composer and their music. By understanding how and why they create can inform aspiring composers and help audiences better understand contemporary classical music. In addition, each composer will be asked to answer a few of the creative cogitations. The creative cogitations are a list of questions all creative people should ask themselves. You can find a complete list of these creative cogitations at thenoisebuffalo@blogspot.com as well as this and future episodes. I am Dr. Doug Bielmeier and I’ll be your host as we explore the world of new music, creativity, and the human need to find purpose in our world and lives. This is the Process.

Helga
+ Read moreArtist, performer and host Helga Davis brings a soulful curiosity and love of people to the podcast Helga: The Armory Conversations. She draws the listener into intimate conversations with artists, scholars and cultural change-makers, famous and lesser known, who join her to share the steps they’ve taken along their paths. These inspiring conversations expand our world and our imaginations as we explore what we think we know about each other. The new season of Helga is a co-production of WNYC Studios and Park Avenue Armory. WNYC Studios is a listener-supported producer of other leading podcasts including Radiolab, On the Media, and Death, Sex & Money. Part American palace, part industrial shed, Park Avenue Armory supports unconventional works in the performing and visual arts that cannot be fully realized in a traditional proscenium theater, concert hall, or white wall gallery.
> “We’re struggling. Our generation is trying to cope. Life is crazy.”
On this final episode of Helga: The Armory Conversations, I look to this next generation of artists. Three participants in Park Avenue Armory’s Youth Corps program, playwright Wilson Castro, visual artist Raven Garcia, and photographer Biviana Sanchez, sat down with me and as we made a space together, we experienced what it means to be vulnerable with oneself and with each other.
The Youth Corps Program immerses students in the art and creative processes of the Armory’s artists through paid, mentored, project-oriented internships. Starting in high school, the Youth Corps provides a test audience to the Armory Artist Corps during the lesson design process, offering feedback from a student perspective, serves as Front of House staff for all Armory events, assists in administrative projects in all departments, and completes and presents a term project. Building on this foundation and responding directly to student needs, the program also includes a post-secondary phase, including strategies to promote college persistence, professional development, and student leadership.
