'Richard is Busy: Podcast Episode 1' Satu Vänskä, Principal Violin of the Australian Chamber Orchestra, interviews ACO Artistic Director Richard Tognetti. Says Satu: "In absence of the strict touring schedule in the Sydney-winter of 2020, between endless cups of tea and ruminations whilst the dough was rising, I came up with the idea of threatening Richard with a microphone in hope that he would take some time off in his studio if I interviewed him. What is he doing there all day and night? What keeps him so busy? He picked a few topics and pieces of music he was adamant to talk about but as you will hear, the ‘interview’ quickly starts shooting in all kinds of directions esoteric and technical, leaving me to try to make sense of it all for your benefit. I hope you’ll find it a little bit informative and somewhat entertaining. We talk about Feldman, Xenakis, Mozart, Bach, EDM, Jimmy Barnes, his own music and inspirations, different tunings and sound frequencies, get in a tiff and break some dishes."…
