Tiffany Ng in University of Michigan Podcast on Diversifying the Carillon

We love following the work of our incredible alumni and Tiffany Ng's work in diversifying the carillon continues to amaze!

In episode 31 of "Listen In Michigan," Tiffany describes her work subverting tradition by comissioning debut and underrepresented composers. Listen closely around 4:58-16:34 for a shout out to her time with BCNM!

“The carillon repertoire was developed with the assumption that listeners were white, male, and Christian,” she says. “I really feel we have a responsibility to all the people who have been marginalized by carillon music to arrange and compose for them too.”
