Two Musicians Get Inventive During the Pandemic with Dan Turkos and Gail Hernandez
Today, I have two guests: Dan Turkos and Gail Hernandez Rosa, two special young musicians who recently formed the core of a group called Beneath A Tree - Baroque to Folk.
This group is unique and inspiring because of the inventiveness with which these musicians mix and weave the classical and folk voices in their interpretations. They're about to release a groundbreaking recording called “My Cup of Tea.”
In this episode, we talked at length about:
Gail’s experiences as a musician traveling in different countries.
How Dan and Gail created a fundraising project for the recording of their album in the midst of the pandemic.
The concept of their album and how it evolved.
The perks and challenges of working together as a couple.
The importance of having individual identities.
Their advice to young students who want to become a musician.
Our favorite musicians like Bach, Mozart, and Willie Nelson and how their music makes us feel.
Their views on improvisation and its relation to being creative.
Get to know more about Dan Turkos and Gail Hernandez Rosa, their music and their life in the full Bowing to Elephants Podcast episode which you can listen to here.
