This episode was recorded immediately following the dress rehearsal for Eugene Ballet's production of Cinderella on Nov. 4, 2021. The performances mark 23 months(!) since Orchestra Next's last performance with the Ballet at the Hult Center...and there are a LOT of feelings about it all. Joining music director Brian McWhorter for this lively chat are general manager Sarah Viens and assistant conductor Daniel Cho.

Orchestra Next wants to thank all of our musicians for hanging in there during this trying time. And we also wish to thank our supporters who have made this podcast possible. If you’d like to help support our projects, please visit orchestranext.com.
