Summary: Paul Dresher is a Bay Area icon, institution, and one of the hardest working musicians around. He composes, performs, creates instruments, runs a non-profit, writes grants, works in opera, dance and a million different theatrical media, commissions and encourages young artists... His middle name is Collaborator. If you want an example of someone who gives to the field and gets back in return, look no further. Listen as he discusses with Philip Blackburn his non-stop pursuit of a world that's better through new music. This interview is in two parts. The Bay Area segments of Measure for Measure are brought to you with support from the Hewlett Foundation.
