My guest today is Laurien Schreuder, the artistic director of Snowapple, a multidisciplinary, international ensemble that combines theater with a wide range of different music genres, from pop to opera and avant-garde cumbia. Snowapple has spoken out on political issues, most notably violence against women in Mexico. This year, on International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, Snowapple and Mexican singer Vivir Quintana released the beautiful song “Alerta” and an incredible video of testimonials. We’ll talk about music and politics in general, and Snowapple’s decision to become active around the issue of femicide in Mexico in particular.

If you want to know more about Snowapple, check out their website at www.snowapple.nl or follow them on Twitter at @snowappleNL or on Instagram at @snowapplemusic. 

Apologies for poor quality on my end -- my computer was very noisy and I was working with open mic.
