Where Music, History, And Travel Meet With Cellist Louise Dubin

What if listening deeply could carry us across centuries? In this Speaking of Travel episode, cellist Louise Dubin invites us into a world where travel, music, and historical discovery intertwine, reminding us that the most meaningful journeys reconnect us with voices nearly forgotten. Performing across solo, chamber, orchestral, and Broadway stages, including Radio City, Louise brings audiences beyond the concert hall, uncovering hidden musical treasures and restoring them to life with remarkable care and passion. Her recordings, including The Franchomme Project and Passages , grew from years of research and travel, especially in France, where she followed the footsteps of 19th-century composers whose works had slipped from the repertoire. Through her work, Louise shows us that curiosity is a devotion, honoring the artists who came before us and ensuring their music continues to breathe. “Travel teaches us to listen differently. When we step into the places where music was created, the notes begin to feel less like history and more like conversation.” In our conversation, Louise reflects on falling in love with the cello, the responsibility of recording works never before heard, and the discoveries that shaped her journey abroad. Together, we explore how music becomes a living conversation across time, memory, and human connection. This is a story about listening with the heart and remembering that every rediscovered note brings the past beautifully into the present. Thanks for listening to Speaking of Travel !
