🎙 Welcome to BarTalk - Real Conversations, No Rehearsal

BarTalk is a bi-weekly, no-filter conversation between NYC-based pianists Pokie and Walter. Recorded in their living room (or wherever life takes them), the podcast dives into the real, unpolished side of classical music life — from backstage gossip and student quirks to late-night rants about freelancing, teaching, and surviving New York. Sometimes there are guests. Mostly, it's just two artists talking shop over drinks. If you're in or around the classical music world, you're invited to pull up a chair.
