This episode of Music Zettel extends ideas about The Maker Movement for Music Education with a recording of my (lockdown) conversation with expert maker-teacher, Phil Nanlohy.

In this episode, I show how setting a poem to music can be guided by the structure of the words, using an example from my latest music theatre work, Agapi and other kinds of love, created with poet and rapper Luka Lesson.
