from The Fidelio Podcast
Flutist and conductor, Alexis Kossenko, joins the program to discuss the melding of his two passions. He chats about his early life and how he got started on the flute at an unusually early age. Although he had an early and precocious interest in conducting, he explains how that came later after he had already established himself as a performer and soloist. Alexis takes us behind the scenes and describes the process he had to go through to create a successful orchestra from the ground up. He talks about some of his favorite music and some upcoming projects that he is working on for the future. During this podcast, Alexis shares with us 6 musical clips from performing the Nielsen Flute Concerto at age 19 to the latest CD that he has made with his new orchestra, Les Ambassadeurs.
