ENTREVISTAS DE MÚSICA
“My vision for Over It Radio is to create a safe space where I can own my own narrative and provide a platform for the women I admire in the entertainment industry to do the same,” Summer Walker tells Apple Music. “We discuss the topics that matter to them, without any hidden agendas.” On her new radio show on Apple Music 1, the Atlanta R&B artist keeps it real, sparking honest and open conversations over the course of six episodes. “Listeners can look forward to hearing powerful, accomplished women celebrating their successes,” she says. “Sharing their frustrations about what they’re ready to move on from and keeping it real about the challenges they face as women, mothers, and entrepreneurs.”

MÚSICA
On his namesake show and New Music Daily, Apple Music 1’s flagship shows, host Zane Lowe brings users unparalleled music knowledge with headline interviews, breaking news, and emerging music from around the globe every day. It’s become the world’s go-to for the best brand-new music, sure, but it’s also popular music’s premier confessional booth: Day after day, Zane—who’s also Apple Music’s global creative director and co-head of artist relations—gets the biggest, most elusive superstars, from Justin Bieber to Taylor Swift to Kanye West, to let their guards down—laughs, tears, and news-making quotes are the norm. “I’m a curious person, I ask questions, and I guess if I'm passionate about something, I'll talk about it and engage people about it. I want to start a conversation and learn,” Zane explains of his approach. “Because the more you share, the more you learn, and vice versa. It’s just a circle that keeps spinning.” Zane earns guests’ trust with a music obsessive’s curiosity and enthusiasm, compassionate questioning, and firsthand music knowledge of life as an artist—he started his music career recording and performing, and continues to write, produce, and record. “The artist side of it, that really drives what I do,” he explains. “I'm not a conventional media-type personality. I’m no good at being a host, really. I'm not a journalist. I don't write, I'm not a writer. What I do is feel and translate.” Check out Zane on The Zane Lowe Show every Monday through Thursday on Apple Music 1 at 9 am LA/12 pm NYC/5 pm LDN and New Music Daily every Friday at 9 am LA, 12 pm NY, and 5 pm LDN.

HISTÓRIA DA MÚSICA
“Throughout my life music has meant a great deal to me,” His Majesty King Charles III says. “I know that is also the case for so many others. But it has that remarkable ability to bring happy memories flooding back from the deepest recesses of our memory, to comfort us in times of sadness and take us to distant places. But perhaps above all, it can lift our spirits to such a degree. All the more so when it brings us together in celebration. In other words, it brings us joy.” The King’s Music Room—exclusively on Apple Music—is where you can explore this relationship further. From his desk in his office at Buckingham Palace, His Majesty reveals a selection of his favourite songs—featuring artists stretching from crooners to Afrobeats stars, via disco divas and reggae icons. It’s a musical journey that spans 10 decades and reflects the diversity of the Commonwealth and a personal taste shaped by extraordinary experiences around the world. The King also shares stories about meeting some of these artists and reveals why the songs help form the soundtrack to his life.

The Story of Classical is a masterful blend of musicology and storytelling, offering incisive insights into the great composers and their works. Elegantly narrated and enriched with exquisite musical excerpts, it is an intellectual and auditory feast for the discerning listener. A second season would be a most welcome encore.

FYI, for those who are wanting links, Apple Music created playlists for each episode of The Story of Classical, which includes the full piece of every played reference in the episode. It is most easily found on the Classical Music App, in which the music is free if you subscribe to Apple Music. It is also a great app to hear all kinds of compositions, and learn about the composers. It includes notes about every composer when you look them up. Apple did a great job in creating the Classical App and this podcast. Keep up the good work!
