Episode Notes

Flutist Lindsey Goodman has a new album "Transporting Bright" coming out today!

WQED's Anna Singer talks with Lindsey about her new album, which features 11 commissioned works by living American composers. The composers include Pittsburgher's such as Nancy Galbraith, and Rob Frankenberry. There are also multiple groups in the album, including flute quartet Pandemonium 4, and the Chrysalis Duo. Lindsey talks about the album's title, which comes from Galbraith's piece "A Something in a Summer's Day".
