S3E20 - Adam T., 37. Barre, VT
Manage episode 312207889 series 2947473
Adam grew up in what he describes as a “Rated R household.” Prince was an early emissary of carnal pleasure who made a deep impact on Adam as a future professional musician. His parents split when he was age 2 but his mom remarried and both his dad and his stepdad represented two different versions of masculinity. But homosexuality was still a taboo subject so Adam had to educate himself through early experimentation with friends and porn.
After graduation, instead of coming out, he shut the door on his sexuality and locked it up tight in order to focus on his goal of becoming a concert pianist. But a post-undergrad, cross-country tour of small town America turned into an odyssey of gay sex that concluded with a move to Houston which he describes as “the gayest place” he’s ever lived.
A much sought-after interpreter of classic piano, Adam currently lives in Brooklyn with his husband and has come to believe that sexual pleasure is just as important to the soul as his artistic pursuit. You can read more about Adam’s post-undergrad odyssey in his memoir: 88x50: A Memoir of Sexual Discovery, Modern Music and The United States of America and his follow up, tidepools which is about his first few years as an artist in NYC.
