The Miettas contacted all of the semifinalists to ask if we had any suggestions and ideas about how we can promote art song, particularly amongst younger audience members. Unfortunately for them, I had a whole damn manifesto!
They asked me if I could possibly summarise it into a short Youtube video, so here is my first attempt at any such thing. Please sit back and enjoy me making stupid connections and pulling funny faces (this is basically my normal mode of speech, to be honest....) while I discuss "Four Myths About Art Song".
