I had a totally cool time connecting with up-and-coming conductors [Jeremy D. Cuebas](https://jdcuebas.com/resume/) and [Luke Lyons-Hunt](https://www.sedaliademocrat.com/news/sedalia-symphony-orchestra-selects-new-conductor/article_52dc93cc-9b10-52e7-89e9-bf3f54f8db44.html) for this [Podium Time Podcast** conversation](https://podiumtimepod.com/2020/08/10/pt84-music-is-not-a-competitive-sport-with-rain-worthington/). Jeremy and Luke are great and we touched on a bunch of interesting topics from a “composer’s perspective” that I hope you’ll enjoy!

Plus this comes at an amazingly synchronistic time with…**
a [PARMA Live Stage performance on Thursday 8/13](https://www.parmarecordings.com/e%E2%80%A6/mfo-live-stream-08-13-20/) of my string orchestra piece, “[Within Deep Currents**](https://thty8p35tm9d6f9.onstatic.studio/works-catalog/within-deep-currents/)”**
and

the [Navona release “PRISMA Vol 4” on Friday 8/14](https://www.navonarecords.com/catalog/nv6298/) with a the orchestral recording of “[Shadows of the Wind**](https://thty8p35tm9d6f9.onstatic.studio/works-catalog/shadows-of-the-wind/)”

(Yep, when it rains, sometimes… it can pour, so I am happily grateful for this celebratory week for my music!)
