Between the Covers & Beyond
In this episode, host JHM Carlisle introduces 'Crown & Circuits,' an ambitious project exploring what happens when 19th-century operatic genius meets contemporary electronic production. Carlisle, in his first podcast presentation, discusses why Rossini's narratives about power, identity, love, and freedom remain eternally relevant. He explores the project's core question: if Rossini were writing today, what would his operas sound like? The episode sets the emotional and intellectual foundation for understanding how classical composition translates into trap beats, synth textures, and modern sound design—while maintaining the dramatic intensity and human truth at the heart of operatic storytelling.JHM Carlisle - Host Bio: JHM Carlisle is an author, cultural commentator, and passionate classical music enthusiast.
