About this listen

Join hosts Lena and Alexandra for the No Clapping Between Movements Podcast, where they dive into the world of symphonic music, featuring insightful interviews with musicians, conductors, and artists from all corners of the globe.


Each episode explores the rich landscape of classical music, offering an in-depth look at the Olympia Symphony’s concert season, while uncovering how music connects and shapes our lives.


Lena, a self-proclaimed music neophyte, shares her passion for the arts and education - though she's left her childhood violin in the past to avoid tormenting the neighbors. Alexandra, an international conductor, brings a wealth of experience and knowledge, and a wardrobe that could rival the dark depths of a black hole in space.
