The British pianist Charles Owen has made some fine recordings, securing a quartet of Gramophone Editor's Choice accolades for albums of Poulenc, Jonathan Dove, Liszt and, with the violinist Augustin Hadelich, a collection of Czech music. Now, for Avie, he turns his attention to the music of Robert Schumann from the 1830s, including Carnaval, Papillons, the Intermezzi Op 4 and the Abegg Variations. James Jolly caught up with Charles recently in London to talk about the album, how Schumann's fascination with the duality of his character infuses these early works, and also about the luxury of recording in a beautiful restored barn deep in The Cotswolds without having to worry about the strict timetable of a commercial recording studio.

Katya Apekisheva has earnt her place as one of Europe's most renowned pianists. Grammophone Magazine described her as a “profoundly gifted artist”. She's performed across the world in auspicious venues including London's Wigmore Hall, and appears on multiple albums. This week, her latest album with fellow pianist Charles Owen is released on the Orchid Classics label, featuring the music of Poulenc, Debussy and Milhaud. Katya talks about her upbringing and tuition at the tail end of the Soviet system, her collaborations with Charles and other musicians, plus introduces a diverse selection of works that have shaped her musical inspiration and career development. This interview was recorded at the Australian Festival of Chamber Music in Townsville earlier this year. Festival director Jack Liebeck curated a delightful schedule of concerts, talks and other events for his second year as artistic director, bringing artists together from around Australia and all over the world. The next AFCM takes place from 26 July to 4 August 2024.

Acclaimed pianists, Charles Owen and Moscow-born Katya Apekisheva, started the London Piano Festival at Kings Place in 2016 as a way of bringing together pianists from around the world. Pianists tend to practice and play in isolation so it can be a lonely profession and this is a much-loved opportunity for them to come together and share their passion for their instrument and its music. Between 5th and 8th October this year's festival is celebrating the 150th birth of Rachmaninov and the centenary of the less well-known but hugely significant and ground-breaking Hungarian musician, Gryorgy Ligeti. We hear about Rachmaninov's lasting legacy - Katya and Charles will perform his major two piano works - and Charles and Katya will be joined by dazzling British musicians Danny Hammond and Clare Driver for ‘Ligeti 100: The Devil's Staircase'. Charles and Katya tell us about other performances in store, including jazz with Polish phenomenon Leszek Motżdżer and a portrait of Rachmaninov in exile by Lucy Parham, narrated by Tim McInnerny. The master pianist and extraordinary, original showman from Ukraine, Vadym Kholodenko, will perform work by Liszt, Beetoven, Adès and the Ukrainian composer Silvestrov. What comes through our conversation is the palpable joy and exuberance that Katya and Charles feel when playing the piano and we have a fascinating conversation about how strong their hands have to be and much more. For all music lovers this is a festival not be missed. We also round up what's happening in the art world – Marina Abramović's astonishing show at the Royal Academy, cementing her reputation as the greatest and most courageous performance artist alive today, Sarah Lucas's new show ‘Happy Gas' at Tate Britain and ‘Celebrating Picasso Today: Infinite Modernism', a show of new and modern works at London's Almine Rech Gallery to honour Picasso 50 years after his death.

I did a lot of gigs early on where I was the classical act in a cabaret of other acts and it kind of blew people away.” (Holly) “I hate people looking at a programme during a concert. I think that's a shame for them to be sidetracked. I'm hoping that I'm compelling enough as a pianist that they're just listening.” (Holly) I want people to feel the breath, the moment between the pieces and not know what's coming next.” (Holly) “Every percentage of a degree is absolutely critical and going over 1.5 or certainly going over 2.0 degrees will have catastrophic runaway effects that could lead to the end of all life on earth.” (Holly) “When we do risk assessment in other parts of life: medicine, building bridges, flying aeroplanes… we don't take risks. If the scientists are saying this could be a disaster, we don't administer that drug, we don't build that bridge, we don't fly that aeroplane. And the risk here (climate) is huge. And the answer is we have to stop using fossil fuels… we have to phase them out completely by 2030.” (Holly) Links Holly Cullen Davies (Guest) Web: https://www.concertsdontcosttheearth.org/ Web: http://www.hollycullendavies.com/ Instagram @daviesanddaughters Instagram @thulamamalondon David Pearl (Host) Web: https://www.davidpearl.net Web: https://wanderfulpodcast.com Twitter: @davidpearlhere Instagram: davidpearl_here Andrew Paine (Producer & Audio Engineer) Twitter: @ItPainesMe

Aidan Enright holds a PhD in History from Queen's University Belfast and is an Associate Researcher and Part-Time Lecturer in History at Leeds Beckett University, where he teaches Modern British History and he is also a Teacher of Social Sciences at University of Bradford International College. In this interview, he discusses his first book, Charles Owen O'Conor, the O'Conor Don: Landlordism, Liberal Catholicism and Unionism in Nineteenth-Century Ireland (Four Courts, 2022) This book uncovers the world of Charles Owen O'Conor, the O‘Conor Don (1838–1906), one of the most prominent Catholic landlords and Liberal MPs of his generation. The scion of the last high king of Ireland and one of a long line of politically active O'Conors, he was a wealthy, fair-minded landlord who served as MP for his native County Roscommon between 1860 and 1880. In parliament, he supported reforms in education, juvenile care, factory law, Sunday closing, the Irish language and landownership. However, as a loyalist, unionist and imperialist, he was out of step with the mood and aims of popular Irish nationalism, especially on the issue of home rule. Indeed, although he was a devout Catholic, proud Irishman and critic of the union, his liberal Catholic and unionist outlook ensured that he became an increasingly marginalized figure as Irish politics polarized along Catholic nationalist and Protestant unionist lines. Charles Owen O'Conor, the O'Conor Don: landlordism, liberal Catholicism and unionism in nineteenth-century Ireland is published by Four Courts Press.

William Fox-Pitt is one of the biggest names in eventing and one of the most successful, with a career spanning 30 years. He is the only rider to have won five out of the six CCI5* events around the world, including winning Burghley an incredible six times and Badminton twice. William has also won three Olympic medals, seven team gold European medals and was the first British rider to become eventing’s World No 1 in 2002, which he went on to achieve again in 2009, 2010 and 2014. In 2015, a bad fall left William in a coma for two weeks, but he still managed to come back to the top of his game and compete at the 2016 Rio Olympics, producing the best result in the British team with Chilli Morning.

Ros Canter’s rise to the top of eventing reads like a Hollywood script. She only moved up to five-star level in 2015 and just three years later was World Champion.

Hearing Ros talk so honestly about her nerves is an inspiration – and she also offers handy tips on riding at speed on cross-country. Ros talks about: · The system created by trainer British Eventing performance coach Chris Bartle, which helped conquer her demons and go on to become World Champion · The importance of getting the basics right · What makes All Star B such a super star · Her hopes for making it to Tokyo and the plan she hopes will get her there · The pressures of staying at the top of her sport · The challenge of juggling motherhood with eventing · The proudest moment for her own mum – and it’s not being crowned World Champion! · Why eventing wasn’t always her career choice – and what made her change her mind · Up-and-coming exiting new horses We hope you enjoy listening to this podcast as much as we loved making it.

Joe is the son of the late, great Tim Stockdale, who was one of the hardest working and nicest men in showjumping. The 21-year-old is already making his mark on the British and international circuit, having represented his country in his first Nations Cup this year. In this podcast, Joe talks about how he nearly didn’t become a showjumper, as he harboured dreams of becoming a professional cricketer. But there were two monumental events in his life, that changed his path forever. The first was winning at HOYS on a plucky little horse called Gunner, which gave him belief he could make it as a showjumper. The second was tragically losing his dad to cancer. Aged just 19, Joe had to face a tough decision: Follow his passion for cricket, or take over his dad’s horses, yard and business. But it’s a challenge Joe happily took on – and he says he doesn't regret his decision for a minute. “I’m glad I did – it was the right decision, I wouldn’t change it for anything.” With the help of his mum, Joe now runs a successful yard in Northamptonshire, competing his dad’s top rides and producing horses to grand prix level.

In this exclusive interview eventer Harry Meade talks frankly about his career, his family and the love of his sport. Harry is one of Britain’s leading event riders. He was a member of the silver medal-winning team at the 2014 World Championships and earlier that year came third at Badminton Horse Trials. He has completed a total of 16 four star events and came sixth at Burghley in 2018.

For three consecutive years he won the prize for the best placed rider under the age of 25 at Burghley, he also remains the youngest rider to have ever received an Armada dish for five Badminton completions.
