The Truth So Help Me Good - Season 3 - Episode 41 - Special Guest Nancy Shear

Hello Co-journeyers! Nancy Shear, author of I Knew a Man Who Knew Brahms, was only fifteen when she began sneaking into Philadelphia Orchestra concerts through the stage door, and seventeen when she was hired as a member of the orchestra’s library staff to help prepare the music; one year later, she became Leopold Stokowski’s musical assistant. Being young and female, she was a pioneer in both positions.It is a privilege to share with you my conversation with Nancy that is both inspiring and insightful. Where she takes us into rehearsals and concert halls, revealing the choices musicians must consider, and what conductors, players, and composers really do.Executive Producer Jake Landry
