Jennifer talks about how she grew up as a violinist. She discusses how important the works of an early music teacher were to her. She discusses finding her way amongst elite musical communities. She highlights challenges that classical music faces: Celebration of multi-hundred year bloodlines, wider gender pay gap than other industries, racism, pushback against genre evolutions, grant organisations that don't actually get the money out to artists. She projets what a post-pandemic landscape can look like.

Jennifer Koh is a violinist who started the arts organization ARCO collaborative. ARCO is an artist run organization that aims to elevate voices that aren’t typically heard in traditional contexts.
