Show Notes

Growing up on tour with Neil Diamond gave Daisy Press a unique outlook on the magic and mysteries of music, and started a journey that leads from Indian Ragas via the 12th century chant of Hildegard von Bingen -- all the way to the engaged minimalism of Frederic Rzewski, whose work she performs at this weekend's Louth Contemporary Music Society festival, Coming Together.
