Mixtape #21: Miniatures by George Henderson

Monday, 20 July 2020
Happy Monday everyone!

We are back with a brand new Mixtape! This week's one is by the New Zealander musician George Henderson!

George Henderson (@puddleg) is a veteran New Zealand indie rock musician and songwriter, whose bands include The Puddle and The New Existentialists. The discovery in a Salvation Army op shop of a second-hand CD set including Mary Louise Boehme’s premiere recording of Amy Beach’s Piano Concerto in C# minor began an unexpected path of musical discovery. In early 2020 he presented three radio programs about women composers of the 20th century (Beach, Price, Boulanger, Bacewicz, and Kaprálová) for Karyn Hay’s “Lately” show on Radio New Zealand.

Keep sharing and happy listening!
