In this episode, I chat with Professor Douglas Shadle. Professor Shadle is an award-winning musicologist whose work explores the cultural and historical roles of symphony orchestras and orchestral music in America. He is the author of Orchestrating the Nation: The Nineteenth-Century American Symphonic Enterprise and Antonín Dvořák’s New World Symphony, both acclaimed for their groundbreaking insights into American musical history. A leading authority on composer Florence B. Price, Professor Shadle is co-authoring her forthcoming biography for Oxford University Press. His scholarship has been featured in major outlets like The New York Times, and his collaborations span renowned orchestras and festivals worldwide. Passionate about connecting music history with contemporary audiences, Professor Shadle is a vital voice in reimagining the place of classical music in American culture.
