SPECIAL BONUS EPISODE: On Sunday, September 7, 2025, Other Minds will present a two piano recital of the music of “Blue” Gene Tyranny and Robert Ashley with pianists Sarah Cahill and Joseph Kubera at Mills College at Northeastern University in Oakland. Robert Ashley and “Blue” Gene Tyranny were both iconic and beloved teachers at the Mills College Music Department. They were opposites in many ways, but when they met in the early 1960s working with the legendary ONCE Group, they forged a fifty-year collaboration and lifelong friendship. In preparation for the concert, we’re sharing excerpts from interviews with the two composers from the Other Minds Archives.
