Meeting Steve Albini and working with him changed the course of my life. He taught me so much about music, and life. Steve was a great friend - wise, kind and generous. I am so grateful.
My thoughts are with him and his family and friends as we suffer his loss.
Each residency for many years after this one I would make a video with or for Bhanu.
Goodbye Goddard—thank you for
my colleagues, my students, my
Program Directors, and all you taught me. youtu.be/LX60lRj5EFU?si=V0Pe…
