Tamara Stefanovich, Martin Hayes
Kate Molleson in conversation with pianist Tamara Stefanovich and Irish fiddler Martin Hayes.
Kate Molleson talks to pianist Tamara Stefanovich. A champion of 20th and 21st century music, Tamara explains her deep connection with the music of now, how global politics have shaped her life in music, and her insatiable appetite for learning which meant she skipped seven years of school.
Kate meets Irish fiddler Martin Hayes who shares his thoughts on the meaning of tradition, putting traditional music on the concert platform, and how the musicians who played and ate around the kitchen table of his childhood home in County Clare continue to inspire his musical life.
Chief Executive of the Independent Society of Musicians (ISM) Deborah Annetts reflects on the new House of Commons committee report on misogyny in music and whether it can bring about lasting change in the music industry. Plus we hear from choir members in Hackney as they take part in Sing East - a showcase for talented choirs from across East London in which the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Singers and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Symphony Chorus joined over 200 local performers for a celebration of song.
