Caribbean Free Radio #38 – A visit with Dominique Le Gendre

Dominique Le Gendre at home in London

Dominique Le Gendre with Royal Opera House accompanist Chris Willis

CFR gets classical in episode #38, as I visit with Trinidad-born composer Dominique Le Gendre at her home in London. I chat with Dominique about her early musical influences, about Caribbeanness and the classical tradition, her experiences as a Associate Artist at the Royal Opera House and her chamber opera “Bird of Night”, which is set to debut at the Royal Opera House in October 2006.
