  • Summary

  • Music finds its way into every corner of our world. Whether it's sounds written to soothe our four-legged friends, or a loud, politically charged punk song, music can change the way we feel and often has larger implications than we imagine. In the latest Audible Original series, Pitch, you'll hear an incredible range of stories that illustrate why music is so central in our connections to each other, our history, and how we navigate the culture and the current moment.

    When you add Pitch to your library you will receive all 9 episodes, each with a runtime of approximately 25 minutes. To hear more great podcasts and short listens, visit Audible.com/AudioShows.

    There are concertgoers who like having their phones out to capture short videos or photos as they enjoy a show. Others absolutely hate this and argue that phones should be banned from these spaces.

    In the low-income — but rapidly gentrifying — neighborhood of South Philadelphia, Andrew Jackson School’s first music teacher in 20 years builds a new middle school program that becomes a massive success story. The program, called “Home,” became a refuge for Jackson’s underserved, low-income students. But as Pitch contributor Avi Wolfman-Arendt reports, "Home’s" very success could in fact drive the demise of the values that made "Home" so important to the kids who participate in it.
