Show by Neon Jazz Interviews - The Finest Jazz Musicians From All Over the Globe
Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Vermont musical polymath, composer and educator Thèriot (Kyle Saulnier). We take a deep dive into his 2026 album The Other, an ambitious, deeply personal and unapologetically vulnerable musical statement, along with a life devoted to music, education and creative exploration.Thèriot's work fuses the American musical vocabulary with modern orchestral techniques and the raw muscle of industrial rock. His compositions, arrangements and orchestrations have been performed nationally and internationally by the Metropole Orkest, Jon Irabagon, The Westerlies, WeatherVest, the Vermont Symphony Orchestra and many others.But The Other takes things somewhere especially personal. This collection explores grief, depression and the masks we wear while pretending everything is okay. It's an honest and emotionally powerful examination of the human experience, expressed through a fearless musical language that refuses to shy away from difficult subjects.We get into the inspiration behind this remarkable project, his creative evolution, his work as an educator, the intersection of orchestral music and rock, and the experiences that shaped his artistic journey.It's a tremendous story and a fascinating conversation with an artist who continues to push musical boundaries while embracing the vulnerability that makes us human.MORE THÈRIOT:Website: https://www.kylesaulnier.com/theriotFor More Neon Jazz: Shows via MixCloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/neonjazzkc/Subscribe via Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/user/neonjazzkcSubscribe via iTunes/Apple - https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/famous-interviews-joe-dimino/id546432639?mt=2The Home of Neon Jazz: http://theneonjazz.blogspot.com/Contribute to Neon Jazz via PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=ER Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
