Sacred Cow Tipping: Them Themes
Show Notes

Richard and Eric hobnob about the concept of 'theme' in music programming.  Do themes play too prevalent of a role in the programming craft of a choral conductor?  What's the purpose of a theme anyway, and what might it look like to have program without any theme?  Perhaps a theme is inevitable, but its worth thinking about to keep things in context.
