In the world of classical music, the collaboration between composers and performers often leads to remarkable creations that resonate deeply with audiences. In this episode of Crushing Classical, host Jennet Ingle engages in a captivating conversation with composer Marjorie Rusche and pianist Clare Longendyke about the upcoming premiere of Rusche's Eclipse Piano Concerto, with the South Bend Symphony Orchestra on March 15 2026. Marjorie M. Rusche is an internationally performed award winning composer who combines romantic, modernist, and vernacular influences in her music. Dr. Rusche composes for opera, music theater, orchestra, chorus, dance, soloists, and a variety of vocal and instrumental chamber ensembles. www.marjorierusche.com Pianist Clare Longendyke is a soloist, chamber musician, and fearless advocate for new music who brings daring repertoire and thoughtful storytelling to the concert stage. Her performances are marked by imaginative programming, charismatic stage presence, and a gift for weaving together contemporary works and classical favorites. Together, they are bringing Rusche's Eclipse Piano Concerto to the stage this March, and the creative process of this collaboration is worth exploring!  www.clarelongendyke.com Make sure you SUBSCRIBE to Crushing Classical, and maybe even leave a nice review!  Thanks for joining me on Crushing Classical!  Theme music by DreamVance.

After weeks of hustle, I'm finally in a phase where I can focus on practicing and enjoying music for the sheer joy of it. It’s a refreshing change!   But I know many of us feel the weight of expectations to always be productive. We think we should be working harder, promoting ourselves more, or achieving something grand.   What if we allowed ourselves to explore different creative directions and passions?   Our artistic journeys don’t have to be linear. It’s okay to embrace joy and creativity, even if it doesn’t directly pay the bills right now.  (As long as SOMETHING is paying the bills, let's be real!)  So, the next time you find yourself feeling guilty for pursuing what makes you happy, remember: your artistry matters!  I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Following their Billboard-charting and award-winning album Midwinter’s Gift, Kirstin Myers and Frances Drost—together known as Double Keyed—continue to delight audiences with heartfelt interpretations of both classical and contemporary music. Their contemplative sound takes listeners on a journey that resonates long after the final note. Formed in 2018, Double Keyed grew out of Kirstin and Frances’s shared desire not only to perform together, but also to offer music that uplifts and leaves audiences with a deep sense of peace. Their first album, Midwinter’s Gift, was recorded in Nashville in 2022 and quickly received national recognition, reaching #13 on Billboard’s “Classical-Crossover” chart. A few months later, it was nominated for the Central Pennsylvania Hall of Fame’s “Best Instrumental Album of the Year” and went on to win “Best Classical-Crossover Album” of 2022. Now, Kirstin and Frances are preparing their second Christmas album, a remarkable follow-up to Midwinter’s Gift. Teaming up again with Nashville arranger and producer Phillip Keveren, this new music will feature the music of the world-class London Symphony Orchestra, recorded at Abbey Road Studios. Double Keyed is currently in full swing raising funds, practicing, and sharing glimpses of this exciting project with audiences.

In a world where classical music often feels distant and elitist, composer/pianist/arranger Joachim Horsley is breaking barriers and bringing fresh energy to the genre. I really appreciate Joachim's combination of deep seriousness and inclusive creativity  - and I know you will love this conversation. Joachim Horsley is a Composer, Pianist and Arranger, known for his innovative Classical/Afro-Caribbean fusion arrangements. He was nominated for a Latin Grammy last year in the Best Arrangement category for "Bach's Cuban Concerto for Piano and Tres" from his recent album "AFRO BACH." He plays concerts all over the world with his quintet and as a special guests with orchestras, and when he's not on the road, he's in Los Angeles writing music for film and TV, including shows like "Baker and The Beauty" on ABC, "Gordita Chronicles" on HBO MAX and the hit Disney Channel show "Big City Greens," which earned him an Annie Nomination for best score last year as well. Currently working on his next album, "Superfusion," he joins us today from his Los Angeles studio.
