About Paul Metzger Interviews Improvisers

I am interested in musical improvisers in all genres, from free jazz players to Hindustani vocalists to noise artists to drone musicians. What makes them do what they do? How did they get their start? What inspires them? I delve into the minutia of their art form and where it is heading. Host, Paul Metzger, explores this terrain once a week in a unique interview focused format specializing on the pursuits of improvisers.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
