Cover Songs is a spotlight show about musical reinterpretation where the creativity collides with honor. Every episode is about artists giving a fresh twist to the old songs, redefining the well-known hits as something new. At the same time, respecting the original makers. In the form of thought-provoking discussions and professional commentary, Pitch Podcast reveals the hidden message behind why artists want to re-interpret songs and why the covers impact listeners of all ages.
Reliving the Classics
The artists contribute their voices, emotions and identity to the composition and create a message that is personal and strong. Pitch Podcast explores the tools musicians use to explore arrangement, tonal, and delivery. Sometimes they change tempo, instrumentation, or even genre altogether. The goal is to express a new feeling and point of view. These innovative decisions demonstrate how fragile a relationship can be between paying tribute to the original and the innovative ones.
The audience will have a more profound understanding of the art of cover that has been reinventing the world of music, acoustic versions of rock songs, and jazz versions of pop songs. Both versions are a linkage between the past and the present, transferring classical compositions to newer generations who might have never heard these songs.
Artistry in Transformation
Cover Songs also discusses how reinterpretation is possible to be an instrument of cultural and personal expression. In interviews with artists, Pitch Podcast examines the process behind the choice of the pieces that resonate with their creative experience. That also includes their interpretation of those pieces, and their own identity and influences. Not all the covers are seen as a way to pay tribute to mentors or emphasize some social message. Some covers can be seen as a way of defying the rules of their genre.
It is a wonderful example of the art and the boldness required to rethink something that is already dear to its heart. Letting one know that music is a living art form developing over time.
