Episode description

Patri-Bachy Podcast is back and to kick things off we were joined by the absolutely astounding Welsh composer, Nathan James Dearden. We chat music education, the importance of collaboration and most importantly, identity and how it impacts us as musicians.

Tune into BBC Radio 3's choral evensong on Wednesday 26th January, 2022, to hear Ben and I singing in the world premiere of Nathan's brand new canticles, and to hear the radio premiere of his fantastic setting of 'Let All the World'! It's one not to be missed...

An introduction to the podcast from the hosts

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.
