Caroline Shaw on Composing, Performing, and Letting Go

This week I had the huge honour to speak with the composer,
vocalist, violinist, and producer Caroline Shaw about her music
and her performing career. Caroline is one of the most exciting
composers around these days, and it was a special thrill for me
to try to get inside of her compositional head in this
conversation. We talked about her meteoric rise as a composer,
her beginnings as a musician, how it feels for her to have her
work performed, and the fascinating connection between speech and
song.
