  • Episode 6: Bartosz Glowacki
    In this episode I talk to the accordionist and fellow City Music Foundation Artist, Bartosz Glowacki. Described as ‘versatile, full of charisma, characterized by extraordinary care for sound quality’, Bartosz is fascinating to hear in a very wide range of repertoire and styles, whether playing the accordion or bandoneon.

  • Episode 5: Andrew Brownell
    Andrew is a prize-winner in the Leeds piano competition, as well as the Bach competition in Leipzig. He is truly an all-round musician, with a fascinatingly wide range of activities: not only is he a brilliant soloist but also a sought-after collaborative pianist, an organist, he has a doctorate in music from the Guildhall School in London and he is now on the faculty at the Butler School of Music of The University of Texas, at Austin.
    He is also a lot of fun to talk to!

  • Episode 4: Lucy Parham
    Lucy Parham is one of Britain's finest pianists, a leading interpreter of works by Robert and Clara Schumann, and the creator of the highly successful series of Composer Portraits, in which she collaborates with leading actors. Having met Lucy for the first time a few years ago, I knew that she was also a very generous person, and someone who would be very insightful, and, not least, very fun to have a long chat with. I am delighted that she accepted my invitation to be on the podcast.
