Grammy award winning bass-baritone Will Liverman and pianist Jonathan King, spoke with WQED about their newly released album, Show Me the Way. This album is a passion project for the two that pays homage to the women in classical music, performers and composers, from the past and today. They commissioned pieces by Sarah Kirkland Snider, Jasmine Barnes, Libby Larsen, Rene Orth, and Kamala Sankaram, and supplemented the album with music from Florence Price, Amy Beach, and Margaret Bonds. Will talks about working with some of his idols, such as Renee Flemming, his friends such as Jonathan King, and his mother, Terry Liverman, on the various tracks in the album. Jonathan highlights how the two met in college and how their continued collaboration connects them as they travel the world.
