About the channel
Revealing the secret lives of our favorite composers. Hey there, I’m Monique. I studied bassoon performance as an undergrad and music education as a grad student. Out of all the musical subjects that I’ve studied throughout my years of formal training, music history is BY FAR my favorite. I love reading about the evolution of western classical music, as well as the life and times of those who wrote it. A lot of our favorite composers led pretty colorful lives, and reading about them is always loads of fun for me! I love geeking out about Beethoven and Shostakovich but unfortunately, nobody in my personal life really cares…(I’d tell ONE little interesting tidbit and I’d be met with “uh huh” and glossy eyes (ᗒᗣᗕ)). So...I’ve turned to YouTube to spread my love of these stories! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!! P.S. I created this channel back in 2019, but didn't upload my first video until January 2022.
