This is such a fantastic site! I stumbled onto it searching for a Jean-Yves Thibaudet article. Bravo! As an out and proud, professional pianist, I am thrilled that this type of forum exists. Where are you based?

Hi there,
thank you for this wonderful site. I’m wondering whether you are aware of the HOMOPHONY festival that was produced by WNYC to celebrate gay and lesbian contribution to classical music. the entire festival is archived and can be listened to on demand. here’s the link: http://beta.wnyc.org/articles/music/2009/jun/17/homophony-festival/
cheers,

I've been a journalist and critic since 2002, and during the 1990s I was a record producer. Among my projects were the collections "Gay American Composers" volumes one and two, and "Lesbian American Composers." I've also led a three-year research initiative into the effects of AIDS on American music.
Why Gay Ears?
Because following GLTB artists can be a doorway into the vast world of classical music. And pride is a good thing, too.
