Today, Ben uses his extensive knowledge of 20th Century French music — did you know he did his dissertation on Francis Poulenc? — to chat about fantastic female composer, Germaine Tailleferre. Is she another Stravinsky? A carbon copy of Ravel? Or... OR... is she a brilliant composer in her own right who deserves the same respect awarded to Stravinsky and Ravel? Listen to find out! And don’t forget to send us a message or comment on Anchor.fm, and follow us on Instagram over at @patribachy pod to keep up to date with what’s happening!
