The Inline G Flute Podcast

After months of exchanging tips on Pokemon cards, I finally found myself in the same city at the same time as the multi-faceted, multi-instrumental and multi-talented Daniela Mars.

From dealing with online social media bullying, to exciting news on her brand new album, this episode (coming live from Paris) covered the lot. I’ve wanted Daniela on the podcast for AGES, and she lived up to every expectation (and then some.)

It’s a high energy episode and I couldn’t have enjoyed it more, so fill your boots x

Coming straight from Paris’ finest Irish pub, this week’s episode has one half of the Electro-Chic pop duo RoSaWay, Rachel Ombredane, joining me for a Guinness and a chat. 

From her classical music training, to social media stardom and a sexy new debut album, Rachel’s career has been fascinating, and she walks us through it all here. The flute never looked so cool.

Paris-Based traverso superstar, conservatoire professor and flute mastermind Sebastijan Bereta joined me on the podcast this week, live from The City of Lights herself, to chat all things flute. 

Sebastijan gives us his tips to embrace the true French Flute School as well an insight into the (cooler?) world of period instruments, before the pair of us wax lyrical about Sir James Galway for 7 minutes.

Punk Rock has the leather jackets, Glam Rock has the capes, Britpop has the parka’s and Heavy Metal has the body odour; but what does Classical Music have?

From what started as Victorian style garments, we look at the historical reasons for Classical Music’s fashion aesthetic, and why it hasn’t really moved on. We’ll chat how Yuja, Khatia, Kennedy and co (including some flutes) are bucking the trend, and why you maybe should too.

Guess who’s back, back again? Schocker’s back; tell your friends.

In the first ever returning guest episode, Gary Shocker is here this week to do a LIVE composition for flute and piano, on air, to completion.

Ever fancied seeing how the world's most published living flute composer goes about writing a piece from scratch? It's your lucky day.

You really are spoiled rotten.

Stick around to the end for a recording too of “Sunday in Cologne” a piece for flute and piano JUST for The Inline G Flute Podcast.

(Also try to spot the moment where Gary and I talk about how not demure brat summer was in NYC)

Coming from Belfast’s (and Ireland’s?) finest pub, I went for a few pints with Irish traditional flute player Múlú in Maddens this week to chat about everything from her career, to the artistic movement in aid of Palestine to paganism and international toot your flute day.

Múlú also chats about her various projects including Tradtronica group Huartan, all-female Trad Supergroup BIIRD and THE Afro Celt Sound System. You’s are spoiled rotten with this episode x

A slightly more rambling episode than usual this week as a recent Blindboy Podcast episode made me reevaluate the role of artistry in interpretation. 

Using World Champion Boxer Anto Cacace, and the Irish storytelling tradition of a Seanchaí, I explore how “just” interpreting really is an art after all.
