Join Teresa for this musical trip down memory lane beginning with the column she wrote that appeared in Hong Kong's South China Morning Post on November 1 1997.

Her guest, Beth Blatt has written for stage, TV, radio and print in the U.S. and abroad. Her dramatic work – musicals, plays, songs - have been performed at the United Nations, Lincoln Center, the Kennedy Center, in New York City, across the US, and in Asia and Europe. Her words have won numerous awards, grants, commissions and residencies. 

Together they explore the essence of classic songs, the evolution of music, and the importance of persistence in creative endeavors. Beth shares her journey of discovering forgotten women in history and how her experiences in France have inspired her work. The discussion also touches on the significance of visualization and maintaining enthusiasm in the creative process.
