160 - Becoming the Kind of Composer You’d Look Up To

from micro/Maker by Loose Leaf Transmissions

Graeme Shields reflects on how a single conversation with a mentor reshaped his idea of what it meant to be a composer—and what kind of life he wanted to build around music. He and Tyler talk about the myth of the “conventional path,” the messiness of creative careers, and how early moments of being seen can set a lifelong course.micro/Maker episodes release every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday!Listen to music/Maker with Tyler Kline wherever you get podcasts, or at musicmakerpodcast.com.Support Loose Leaf Transmissions on Patreon at patreon.com/LooseLeafTransmissions.Follow us on Instagram: @loose.leaf.transmissionsmicro/Maker is a production of Loose Leaf Transmissions: Made for All Ears.
