Classical Uprising: Dr. Emily Isaacson Is Immersing Maine in Classical Music

Maine native Dr. Emily Isaacson is the founder and artistic director of Classical Uprising, a group of immersive community-oriented music programs that include the popular Portland Bach Experience. Emily is passionate about creating access to classical music, and illuminating its meaningful intersection with contemporary culture. Her original doctoral work in conducting and music literature provided her with a unique–and occasionally uncomfortable–perspective on leadership and inclusivity that has strengthened her resolve to have a more open and appreciative approach within this competitive field.
