This week we’re throwing it all the way back to May 2021 with this unpublished episode all about soprano extraordinaire, Jessye Norman! We chat about Jessye’s life and works and what made her so phenomenal. If you’re listening on Spotify, hang on after the outro to hear the recording of ‘When the Saints’ with Jessye and Mike Lovatt, and if you’re listening elsewhere, use the link below to find it on another platform. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5kw9ixlOuw<br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Episode 3: Waldemar Henrique

We’re Ellie and Ben, and together we’re on a voyage of discovery to learn about those Western Classical musicians we don’t know so well. At the end of each episode we’ll be swiping left or right on some better and lesser known musicians and deciding whether we think they should be in our brand-spanking new canon! So come and join us as we sift through a whole host of incredible musicians and hopefully show that Classical Music is a lot more than just Caucasian men from the 18th Century. Hosted on Acast.
