Ep. 55 - Meeting with the Maestro

Christopher Wilkins, Music Director and Conductor of the Akron Symphony Orchestra, talks with Liz and Chris about this weekend’s performance of "Carmina burana," which will combine music and dance and feature collaborations with a number of local dance groups, like GroundWorks Dance Theater, Dance Institute, Ballet Excel Ohio and other young dancers from Northeast Ohio, as well as the Akron Symphony Chorus. Christopher also talks about how he shares his time between Akron and Boston and his own background in music. Oh, and Liza used to play the viola! "Carmina burana" takes place Saturday, May 7 at 8 p.m. at EJ Thomas Hall. Visit www.akronsymphony.org.
