A Semi-spooky Episode 8: Kendra Preston Leonard

We are so grateful to have Kendra Preston Leonard join us for our 8th episode. A perfect guest for the Halloween season, as much of Kendra's work is inspired by gothic, dark, other-worldly (and totally awesome) themes. But, seriously, her work is scary good and incredibly impactful. Kendra is a lyricist and librettist whose collaborations with composers tell stories about empowerment, resilience, and compassion. The Teaching Artist in Libretto Writing at Guerilla Opera, Leonard is inspired by history, language, nature, and myth. Leonard is also a music scholar, focusing on women and music in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries; and music and screen history.
