Post by NICOLE NALEPA

New episode of Mostly Together is live — and this one is such a beautiful conversation. Nicholas Phan is a Grammy Award-winning tenor, curator, educator, writer, and artistic director whose work asks questions far beyond the concert hall: What does it mean to belong? To a country. To a tradition. To an art form. To yourself. Ahead of his Tanglewood program, Fellow Citizens, Nick joined me for a conversation about the gift of music, identity, outsiderhood, citizenship, and what it means to find your voice — literally and figuratively. We also talked about the emotional weight of winning a Grammy, the role music played in shaping his life, and why art can sometimes help us feel what words alone cannot. This conversation reminded me that voice is not just about sound. It’s about presence. Truth. Belonging. And the courage to take up space without leaving parts of yourself behind.
