Anne Midgette quits Washington Post

9/27/2019

Anne Midgette, music critic for the Washington Post, has resigned her post after 11 years.

Musical America reports that she said "...I don't want journalism to be the only thing I do with my life...I have always wanted to write more books. I have had my say about DC's classical music institutions, and I think a change is good for everyone, readers and musicians as well as writers."

She plans to remain in Washington DC with her husband Greg Sandow (who is also a music critic as well as a teacher and composer) and their son.

When PBS refused to produce it, I got to—incorporating documentary material within live symphony orchestra television to increase visual interest, identifying players on camera, etc. I think the message of “Heroes of Conscience” is as powerful and relevant today as in 1992.

Blessings.

If you have time sometime, please view again the EMMY-winning concert/documentary I produced for Union Theological Seminary in Riverside Church on April 5, 1992. VISN Cable Network has released it in full:
