Enjoy the trailer for The Piano Pod’s upcoming episode featuring Ophelia Gordon, available only for our beloved Substack subscribers before the official release.
I had an incredible conversation with Ophelia Gordon—concert pianist, recording artist, and one of the world’s leading interpreters of Nikolai Kapustin’s music—for Season 5, Episode 12.
Ophelia’s artistry defies categorization. She seamlessly blends the rhythmic pulse of jazz with the technical depth of classical music—a rare and extraordinary balance. Her discovery of Kapustin’s music was a pivotal moment, leading her to a composer who, like her, refused to be boxed into a single genre.
How do you bridge two musical worlds that seem at odds?
What does staying authentic in a tradition-bound field really mean?
How can improvisation reshape classical performance?
We explore these questions and more in this inspiring episode.
