This week on Moveable Do, Steve talks with Craig Hella Johnson, the director of the professional choral ensemble, Conspirare. This Minnesota native now lives in Texas and was named the 2013 official Texas State Musician. We talk about what that means, keys to programing a successful concert, and how and why he started Conspirare. Pieces featured on this episode: “Songs from the Road,” “Gitanjali Chants,” and two pieces from Considering Matthew Shepherd, “Cattle, Horses, Sky and Grass,” and “The Fence (After) – The Wind.”
