This is the podcast for the chronically creative. The title is derived from Madeline L'Engle's work on creativity, "Walking on Water," in which she describes everyone's artistic actions as "feeding the lake." You may not think you contribute a river, like the Shakespeares, Mozarts, and L'Engles of the world, but everyone's offering feeds the lake, and that is what helps the land to thrive.

Episode 04 - Influences

In this week's episode, I talk about 3 shows and several composers that influenced the style and structure of "Ruth." If you haven't seen Les Miserables, Chess, or The Hunchback of Notre Dame, then you need to quickly visit these links before listening to this episode:

"The Confrontaion (Valjean & Javert)" from Les Miserables
"One Day More" from Les Miserables
"Anthem" from Chess
"The Deal" from Chess
"Esmerelda" from Hunchback of Notre Dame

Also, here are some of my favorite lectures/masterclasses that I found on YouTube while finishing up writing Ruth:

Also, we're under a month until Ruth is available for free on YouTube the weekend of Sept. 11-13. I will be giving a Virtual Q&A on Zoom with myself and the 3 lead performers form the show on Sat. Sept. 12 at 7:00pm CST. For more information on how you can attend, visit https://midwestfoodbank.org/ruth
