Tulsa PAC to Host an Evening with the Highly Acclaimed Composer and Conductor Eric Whitacre

Aired on Friday, January 12th.

On this edition of StudioTulsa, we present a conversation with the award-winning composer, conductor, and choral director Eric Whitacre, who will soon appear with the Tulsa Symphony Orchestra and the Tulsa Oratorio Chorus at the Tulsa PAC (on Saturday the 13th, beginning at 7:30pm). Whitacre will be the guest conductor for an evening of his instrumental and choral compositions exclusively -- including "Water Night," "Equus," "Deep Field," and "Godzilla Eats Las Vegas." And please note that our guest host for today's show is Jason Heilman, a locally based musicologist whose excellent new program, Classical Tulsa, can be heard every Friday at noon on KWTU Classical 88.7 (which is our "sister station" here at Public Radio Tulsa).

Rich Fisher is celebrating his 40th year of service to Public Radio Tulsa. Since 2000, he has been the general manager of Public Radio Tulsa, and previously served as the host of the public affairs program, StudioTulsa, which ran from 1992-2021. Prior to that, he served as music director, a program host and operations director for the station.
