Episode 201 - Bruce Coughlin

Bruce Coughlin is a Tony Award winning American orchestrator and music arranger. In 2019 Bruce joined Metallica, Michael Tilson Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony in writing new arrangements and orchestrations for S&M2. In this episode we talk about his early work, invitation to work with Metallica, the process of writing arrangements, re-working some of the older songs, rehearsals and the ultimate execution of S&M2. We hope you enjoy getting to know Bruce as much as we did.Other topics in the E-Mail portal include listeners getting into Bokassa, a MUYP Radio episode with listener's bands, the one song we would play for someone who has never heard Metallica, what kind of podcasts we WISH existed and an invitation for all of the Metallica Chapters to send us a bumper for the show. If you think Metal Up Your Podcast has value, please consider taking a brief moment to leave a positive review and subscribe here:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/metal-up-your-podcast-all-things-metallica/id1187775077You can further support the show by becoming a patron.
