Episode 112 Michael Fine

Michael and Tammy Fine

GRAMMY® Award winning Classical Producer of the Year, Michael Fine is one of the top classical recording producers in the world.

But he also has been active in artistic planning for major orchestras world-wide.

He formerly was vice president of artists and repertoire at Deutsche Grammophon, the first American to hold the post of artistic director of the 100 year-old label.

Michael remains active as clarinetist with engagements at Festival Mozaic in California and the Tongyeong Music Festival in South Korea. And, he is an active composer, with his compositions premiering in the United States, France, Spain, and Cuba where he served as composer-in-residence for the first Habana Clasica Festival.

Michael has produced hundreds of recordings for numerous prominent labels and he’d probably be the first to tell you that he could not have done it all without the contribution of his wife, Tamara.

I am so sorry to report that Tammy passed away on May 27, 2024.
