The Inline G Flute Podcast

Pianist Myriam Barbaux-Cohen’s new record, “Where Shadows Stay”, is released worldwide today. Being my chamber music partner, and mate, Myriam gave me a copy in advance.

What was initially meant to be a review turned into a reflection on the importance of supporting our friends, and how separating the art from the artist is boll*cks. 

Go stream Myriam’s album,

Dissonance and consonance can only exist in relation to each other, be it the denying of pleasure to increase its potency, or by resolving harmonies in Gizmo’s theme from Gremlins.

A Halloween special, looking at how much discomfort is good for us.

Certain classical musicians cosplay as liberal to benefit from queer spaces, and get found out by their inevitable support of Israel.

I look at how money and social class are still the greatest barriers in classical music, as well as chatting about the scam of “music studio coaches.”

A prevalent stereotype exists of classical musicians, particularly singers, that they’re all big fat lads with viking horns. However beauty standards have never been higher in the industry, and nor have eating disorders.

Looking at a study into disordered eating, as well as the commentary around Yuja Wang and Khatia Buniatishvili and the castrated singers of before, I try to quash these stereotypes.

After receiving some exciting news, I reflected on why I instantly felt a pang of anxiety and why classical musician’s systemically feel like this.

Using a concert from psychologist Carl Rogers, I look at how other musicians evaluate their success internally and how we can do the same.

Israel uses stolen classical music as a soft power to legitimise its existence as a state, and even the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra can’t hide that.

This episode compares it with Japan’s use of soft power post WW2, and calls for the industry to hold Israeli musicians to the same standards we held Russian ones too.

For a country of under 4 million people, Georgia is regularly producing some of the best musicians on earth. 

I look at how this is in fact in spite of its Soviet past, instead due primarily to its incredible folk music ecosystem.

When it comes to art from the 2 main political traditions in the North of Ireland, one is significantly more culturally confident. 

Ulster Unionism has created awful art, by right wingers with lower cognitive ability and emotional intelligence. Today I look at how and why this resonates artistically with very few people, whilst Irish art is admired worldwide.
