Aaron is joined by world-renowned vocalist, Cécile McLorin Salvant. Cécile shares her incredible journey from casual singer to multi-time Grammy Award winner, how she coped with stage fright before singing 'America the Beautiful' at the US Open's Women's Tennis Final, and the importance of putting googly eyes on things.

42. Arts and Crafts with Cécile McLorin Salvant

Welcome everyone!


Join host, Aaron Strand, as we take a historical deep dive into the life and work of cinema's greatest directors.


We skip across time, genre, and nationality to explore the greatest and wildest stories from the history of film, and use the lives of these extraordinary artists to examine the broader historical context that shaped their art.


Think 'Hardcore History' meets 'You Must Remember This'.


Between our main story episodes, we will be releasing 'One-Reelers'. These shorter episodes will feature interviews with scholars, artists and fellow movie-lovers, listener emails, or shorter historical anecdotes.


Whether you're a hardcore cinephile, a history nerd, or just someone who likes a good story, you'll love these gripping tales about the art and artists that have shaped and defined our modern world!
