Paris native and American citizen Melisse Brunet is
conducting herself and orchestras in the only way she knows how--by being her true self and not conforming to others' ideas of what a woman conductor should
look like or do.
She spoke with me on this podcast a few months ago about her joy of becoming a U.S. citizen and her profession, and we briefly spoke about her being featured in the documentary "Maestra." This week we dive deeper into what the experience of competing in La Maestra was like and how she felt about being so honest and vulnerable in the documentary about a handful of the women in the competition.
