Zuill Bailey of Northwest BachFest

On this week's episode we catch up with Zuill Bailey, who is not only an internationally touring cellist but also artistic director of the Northwest BachFest.There are three BachFest concerts coming up next week. First, there's Music in Manito on July 22 and 23. That's followed by the Afterglow performance at Barrister Winery on July 24. All three shows feature the same guest artists — namely, the Brazilian-inspired trio Biribá Union as well as the violinist Helen Hwaya Kim.But the two different venues mean that the concerts are going be very different experiences. Zuill talks about that as well as his larger vision for BachFest, which might have something to do with the more unexpected songs on his streaming playlist.A huge thanks our episode sponsor, the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture. The new nationally touring exhibition Preston Singletary: Raven & The Box of Daylight features work by the Seattle glass artist based around Tlingit mythologies.
