Recovering from a brain injury can be a challenging experience, and often the social supports required simply do not exist. David Putrino, Director of Rehabilitation Innovation for the Mount Sinai Health System, Jenny Clarke, co-founder and CEO at the advocacy organization SameYou, and Clemency Burton-Hill, a former classical music broadcaster at WQXR who suffered a brain injury in 2020, discuss the recovery process, and what systemic changes could help patients who survived brain injuries. Former WQXR classical music presenter Clemency Burton-Hill had to re-learn how to play music, which she then used as a therapeutic part of her recovery from a brain injury.

Andrea Falconieri, compositor italiano y virtuoso olvidado del siglo XVII, como casi todos los músicos independientes de entonces y de hoy día, estuvo dispuesto a trasladarse donde hubiera trabajo, así, nos cuenta Clemency Burton-Hill. Falconieri viajó por toda Italia, España y Francia, recogiendo tendencias e influencias musicales y adaptándolas a su música. Desde 1647 se las arregló para tocar de manera permanente en su Nápoles natal, que en aquellos tiempos estaba bajo el dominio de España, lo que explicaría el contagioso ritmo que escucharemos a continuación. A continuación la Ciaccona en Sol mayor de Falconieri de manos de la Sonatori de la Gioiosa Marca.

Clemency Burton-Hill returns to host a special edition of Classical Fix as part of Mental Health Awareness Week, mixing a classical playlist for bestselling psychotherapist Julia Samuel whose new book 'Every Family Has a Story' explores how we are influenced by our families and how we can change. Clemmie's playlist for Julia has family at its heart and together they explore how music can help us connect to ourselves and to each other, and how it allows us to feel the pain and darkness that can ultimately help us heal. Julia's playlist: Lili Boulanger - D'un Jardin Clair CPE Bach - Cello Concerto in A major (3rd movement) Domenico Scarlatti - Agnus Dei from Missa Breve 'La Stella' Gustav Mahler - Kindertotenlieder: Nun will die Sonn' so hell aufgeh'n Robert Schumann - Widmung (arranged by Clara Schumann) Johannes Brahms - Intermezzo no.1 in E flat (Op.117)

El compositor finés Jean Sibelius escribió en 1903 seis piezas para el drama Kuolema (Muerte) de Arvid Järnefelt, hermano de su esposa. Entre dichas piezas, nos cuenta Clemency Burton-Hill había un vals que, según comentarios de un amigo de Sibelius, se le ocurrió al compositor en el restaurante Kämp de Helsinki – que todavía existe- mientras degustaba ostras, quinina y soda. Sibelius bebía con gran ánimo pero aquel día estaba resfriado y prefirió consumir quinina. La obra de teatro no sobrevivió, pero sí la música. Sibelius revisó el melancólico vals del drama y lo dió a conocer con el nombre de Vals triste en 1904 y a partir de allí figura en el repertorio de las orquestas. A continuación Vals triste de Sibelius de manos de la Orquesta Filarmónica de Berlín bajo la batuta de Herbert von Karajan.

Uno de los compositores que escribió música para que varios teclados tocaran juntos, fue sin duda Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, quien con una habilidad apabullante crea en este tipo de piezas un modo de conversación real entre estos instrumentos. La música que escucharemos hoy escrita para tres pianos, nació producto de la petición de una clienta de Mozart, una condesa llamada Antonia Londron perteneciente a una familia establecida en Salzburgo, que quería disponer de una pieza que pudiera tocar con sus dos hijas. Este compositor que tendría 20 años para la época, la complació y adaptó la partitura a las habilidades técnicas de las intérpretes. Tiempo después, nos cuenta Clemency Burton-Hill, Mozart transformó la obra en una versión para dos pianos que interpretó con su hermana Nannerl. A continuación un fragmento del primer movimiento del Concierto para tres piano No. 7 de Mozart de manos de David Bismuth, Emmanuel Christien y Adam Laloum en el piano junto a la Orquesta de Paris dirigida por Cornelius Meister.

En 1944, en la montañas del oeste de Tokio, nos cuenta Clemency Burton-Hill, un soldado de 14 años llamado Töru Takemitsu, se encontraba apostado en un refugio subterráneo construido para prevenir invasiones. Un día hubo un inesperado descanso en la agotadora rutina laboral y un oficial los invitó a Töru y a los demás soldados a pasar a una habitación del fondo del refugio donde guardaba un gramófono de manubrio con una improvisada aguja de bambú. El oficial les puso unos discos. Fue un regalo, el más sencillo que existe: compartir música. Los humanos lo venimos haciendo desde que estamos aquí. Töru escuchó los discos totalmente sorprendido, según comento años después. Durante el resto de su vida recordó aquella experiencia como el inicio de su conciencia musical. Tiempo después cuando ya enseñaba técnica instrumental y composición básica, gozaba de la admiración de grandes músicos como Stravinsky, ya había escrito cientos de obras aclamadas, había musicalizado noventa películas y publicado veinte libros, y ya era conocido como uno de los compositores y una de las figuras culturales más reconocidas de Japón, seguía volviendo a aquel momento, a aquella ofrenda musical, a aquel gesto de humanidad corriente, a aquel regalo….

Another Year of Wonder is a carefully curated collection of classical music offering one piece to listen to every day of the year. Narrated by Elizabeth Day and Eddie Redmayne. In this follow-up to her much-loved Year of Wonder, award-winning violinist, journalist and broadcaster Clemency Burton-Hill seeks to represent the widest possible picture of what the genre known as 'classical music' can be. In this audiobook, she demystifies the music by humanising its creators. Of the composers included in her daily choices some are very famous indeed, but others have so far garnered only a niche audience. 'Classical composers can seem impossibly remote from the lives of regular humans in the 21st century. The term "classical" music, if it conjures any image at all, invariably calls to mind some sort of 18th-century European white male, perhaps in a powdered wig and velvet frock coat. We don't think of these humans as being just like us: relatable, fallible, flawed creatures who are all in their own ways figuring out how to be. We don't think of them as being women, people of colour, minorities. And yet in this book we find hundreds of inspiring humans of all stripes and backgrounds, creating music of dazzling diversity. I write of their stories, their lives and loves, their losses and triumphs, their sorrows and joys and as I did so that old cliché about music being the universal language was revealed for the profound truth it is. Truly all of human life is here.' Music is a universal, social object, made by humans for humans, passed between us as gifts across space and time. The pieces of music you will find here will see you through a whole year, offering a soundtrack to your everyday life as well as a reminder that in our ever more frenetic and fragmented lives, finding a space to sit and listen to a piece of music every day can be a singular gift to yourself.

Emma Barnett looks back over her first year at Woman's Hour, from holding those in power to account to hearing from women who found themselves in the most ordinary and extraordinary circumstances. Clemency Burton-Hill explains the choice she felt she was presented with after a brain haemorrhage. ‘Annie' describes how home-schooling three children while trying to work made her feel that she was failing at everything. Lady Lavinia Nourse and Amanda Knox spoke exclusively about the experience of being cleared of the most serious crimes. Plus, knitting patterns as code and what can go wrong when you are being sawn in half by Paul Daniels.

This one comes to you straight from my heart. Clemmie Burton-Hill is one of my closest friends. She is also one of the most accomplished and brilliant people I know - a gifted violinist, a wonderful author, a talented actor, a peerless broadcaster, a fantastic mother, a wildly loyal friend. But in January 2020, her life changed forever. Clemmie suffered a brain haemorrhage and a massive stroke. She underwent emergency surgery and spent 17 days in a coma. When she regained consciousness, it was to a radically different reality. Clemmie had to relearn how to walk, talk and write. She had to re-learn how to be. No-one was sure how much of her brain she would recover. And yet, Clemmie set about defying every single medical expectation made of her. Now, almost two years later, she is miraculously herself again. Her recovery is still ongoing, but in the midst of this personal trauma she has achieved the unimaginable and written a new book. Another Year of Wonder is a follow-up to her much-loved Year of Wonder, and offers up one extraordinary piece of music to listen to every day of the year. This interview will leave you changed. It will remind you of the beauty of life, even in the midst of extreme suffering. It will show you what it truly is to be human. -- You can buy Another Year of Wonder by Clemency Burton-Hill here. -- If you've been affected by any of the issues discussed in this episode, you can contact Headway, the brain injury charity, here. --- How To Fail With Elizabeth Day is hosted by Elizabeth Day, produced by Naomi Mantin and Chris Sharp.

If you enjoy this podcast, consider buying me a coffee: https://adamstoner.com/support His body blue, no blood pressure to speak of, and no pulse to find, artist Andy Warhol was declared dead on arrival at Columbus Hospital in New York City – 4:51pm on June 3rd 1968 – having just been shot by a former colleague at his workshop, The Factory. Bleeding on the gurney, a senior doctor took a fleeting look at the corpse, peeling back an eyelid and watched as its pupil contracted in the bright emergency room lights. Andy Warhol wasn't dead. More culturally relevant to modern day, materialistic Christmases than Jesus himself, disciples of the king of consumerism gathered outside the hospital that night, Andy's resurrection happening within. A cardiac arrest on the operating table and 12 pints of blood later, Warhol's scarified body walked from the hospital alive. I tell you this because I've just finished reading The Andy Warhol Diaries and am about to finish Year of Wonder: Classical Music for Every Day by ex-BBC Radio 3 presenter Clemency Burton-Hill. Clemency's got a sequel out this December, Another Year of Wonder, which I've pre-ordered. On the subject of music, Paul McCartney's new double-volume coffee-table book – The Lyrics – is an intimate self-portrait in 154 songs, a fascinating trawl through the handwritten notes of the UK's greatest songwriter. I got that at the start of the month when I saw his Q&A at the Southbank Centre in London. Spread over pages 48 and 49 of the most recent edition of Science and Nature magazine, I write about something that world leaders overwhelmingly failed to grasp at COP26: the fragility of planet Earth. Despite their failure, it was lovely to see my writing published and now exist in the hands and homes of people across the country. That edition is still on newsstands if you've not been able to pick up your copy yet. On Audible I've been listening to Conscious: A Brief Guide to the Fundamental Mystery of the Mind by Annaka Harris, Your Brain Is a Time Machine: The Neuroscience and Physics of Time by Dean Buonomano, and Transcend by Scott Barry Kaufman. I've also been listening to the tonnes of great music that's come out this month. HalfNoise's new album, Motif, is a blend of classical and jazz and a perfect easy evening listen. ABBA's new album shot straight to number one and it's no surprise why. Adele's new album is undoubtedly fantastic too. I was gifted a gorgeous Voyager Golden Record three-LP box-set from Ozma Records and also received a signed copy of Christopher Tin's Calling All Dawns on vinyl this month. For me, albums are a snapshot of the time in which they were recorded, something the Voyager record captures so poignantly and Adele clearly feels too; why else would you title each album your age? That's why I feel strongly about Taylor Swift's re-recording of her albums. Red (Taylor's Version) came out earlier in the month and although I sympathise with the reasons behind its re-release, there's something wholly inauthentic about a soon-to-be 32 year old re-releasing songs written by a 22 year old Swift. As she catches up with her present day work, I daresay I'll feel differently. That said, the album is just as fantastic as the first time around and like Paul McCartney's book, I love gems from the archive. I've had such a lovely month getting out-and-about too. Working on a big project I'll be able to tell you more about in the new year, I was at the Royal Observatory Greenwich in mid-November. I also visited We The Curious in Bristol yesterday for more of the same. Either my taste in films is terrible or critics are stuffy people whose self-importance impedes their judgement. The reviews for House of Gucci are terrible; I saw it in the cinema on Friday and thoroughly enjoyed it. I reckon it's the second of those two things. I was invited to hear the Cotswold Male Voice Choir perform in Cheltenham on Saturday and even took a walk around Westonbirt Arboretum a few days ago on a press preview of their Enchanted Christmas trail. I was also invited to the Tewkesbury Festival of Lights at the start of the month, a beautiful sound and light show telling the story of Tewkesbury through the lens of its 900 year old Abbey. That's sort of what I'm trying to do with these updates; place my story – what I've been doing, reading, watching, and listening to – within the much wider context in which we all live our otherwise individual lives. I think that's also what makes religion so fascinating, I'm not a religious person (though I did have tea with the Bishop of Tewkesbury in the Reverend's home) but I do love the theatrics of it; cathedrals and churches and choirs and the feeling of belonging to something bigger than yourself, a grander story. Today's the first day of December and the countdown to Christmas and the New Year is on. Assisting me are advent calendars from Yankee Candles and T2 Tea. It won't be long before we pop up our tree also; we've decorated ours in basically the same style for as long as I can remember, only ever replacing and adding ornaments here-and-there. I've also got a smaller tree from Bloom & Wild. It comes through your letterbox, is taking pride of place atop a locker I got from Mustard, and with its roots still intact, you can even plant it on afterwards! I did so last in 2019; it's still growing strong. In 1964, a few years prior to Andy's shooting, he had his photo taken in front of a bare Christmas tree, a blue spruce, stripped of all decoration. The image is anathema to everything we know about Warhol his colourful pop art so I emailed the The Andy Warhol Museum on a quest to find out more about it. Matt Gray, manager of the archives, replied. The photo is a design submission for an exhibit at the headquarters of Hallmark Cards. His decision to submit an empty tree wasn't a publicity stunt or a critical read on culture but was a very subversive and deliberate artistic decision. […] He was very aware that the other participants in the show were stuffy and traditional and this was a chance to emphasize his new and rebellious image. […] The fact that he was given the largest tree and a prominent location [in the show] confirms he was on to something. Warhol's tree was left out of the cheery full-colour spread that filled Ladies' Home Journal that year and became known as his ‘anti-Christmas tree', but neither Matt or I think that was his intention… Warhol's tree captures precisely what makes Christmas so special because whether you're a fan of the theatrics of religion or of commercialism, this time is a blank canvas to decorate as you see fit. There is no right or wrong way to celebrate the holidays. Whether you spend this time surrounded by family, binge-eating food or in quiet contemplation of the year just gone, I hope you enjoy it. Here's how Warhol spent his final Christmas in 1986: I went to the church of Heavenly Rest to pass out Interviews [his magazine] and feed the poor. Got a lot of calls to go to Christmas parties but I just decided to stay in and I loved it. Merry Christmas. You'll next hear from me on December 31st 2021.

La maravillosa coreógrafa y bailarina estadounidense Martha Graham encargó a Aaron Copland la música para un ballet que recogiera un tema americano. Copland para inspirarse, nos cuenta Clemency Burton-Hill, recurrió a danzas y rituales tradicionales de la secta religiosa de los Shakers de Estados Unidos. Así, nació Appalachian spring. Esta obra llamada inicialmente Ballet para Martha, cuenta una historia sencilla: en la víspera de su boda, dos jóvenes del siglo XIX piensan en su futuro; fundan un casa en el campo y conocen a un predicador itinerante y a una vieja y simpática sabia pionera. Esta obra, revela con simplicidad una parte, quizá la más bonita, de la conquista americana. Hoy escucharemos un fragmento de Appalachian spring, que fue estrenada un 30 de octubre de 1944, de manos de la orquesta Filarmónica de New York bajo la dirección de Leonard Bernstein.

El cargo de maestro de música de la Corona inglesa, ha existido desde 1625, cuando Carlos I de Inglaterra nombró director de su banda privada a un músico de la corte llamado Nicholas Lanier. La banda en cuestión, nos cuenta Clemency Burton Hill, debía acompañarlo donde fuera y su misión era tocar cuando a él le apeteciese. Tuvieron que transcurrir 388 años para designar una mujer en ese puesto: Judith Weir. Esta compositora escribe música ingeniosa sin mayores pretensiones. Es música íntegra y muy concienzuda, pensando sobre todo el propósito y lugar de la música en el mundo. Weir, alumna de John Tavener, ha compuesto varias óperas, obras épicas para orquesta y coro, piezas vocales y algunas musicalizaciones de versos y poesía. A continuación escucharemos de Judith Weir de sus Tres corales para cello y piano, la primera titulada Ángeles inclinándose hacia la tierra, de manos de Jonathan Miller en el cello y Randall Hodgkinson en el piano.

Jean-Baptiste Lully, fue una figura poderosa y dinámica en el núcleo de la naciente ópera francesa, que dio lugar a una serie de espectáculos escénicos nuevos como las comedias-ballet y las tragedias. Sus fervorosos partidarios, nos cuenta Clemency Burton Hill, llamados Lullystas, podrían ser haber sido los primos hermanos de los fanáticos de los conciertos de rock en la actualidad. Lully, italiano e hijo de molineros humildes de la Toscana, tras un encuentro casual con un caballero francés durante un martes de carnaval trabajo en Francia donde llego a ser un miembro insustituible de la corte de Luis XIV, haciéndose súbdito francés en 1661. Cantante, violinista, guitarrista y bailarín, Lully cuya fama de extravagante le acompañaba, colaboró con unos de los espíritus más brillantes de su época, el comediógrado Moliere, como recordaran les comentamos en nuestro podcast 142, realizado en marzo de este año. Hoy escucharemos de la ópera Roland de Lully la Obertura de manos de la Capriccio Stravagante Les 24 Violons dirigidos por Skip Sempé.

El compositor George Bizet la llamaba “la pequeña Mozart”, cuando tenía 8 años. Hablamos de Cécile Chaminade compositora y pianista francesa, cuyas composiciones impresionaron tanto a Bizet que le sugirió a sus padres que hiciera estudios formales de música, pero a ellos no les pareció muy buena idea. El padre, que era agente de seguros le respondió, según nos cuenta Clemency Burton-Hill, lo siguiente: “El destino de la niñas burguesas es ser esposas y madres”. Chaminade, sin embargo, pensó de otro modo y años después comentaba: “No se concibe que las mujeres puedan ser fuerza de trabajo΅ añadiendo que “el trabajo y las condiciones que se les imponen a causa de su sexo no les permiten desarrollarse del mejor modo posible...Están en franca desventaja y solo unas cuantas, por la fuerza de las circunstancias o su propia fortaleza, han conseguido superar los impedimentos”. La heroica Cécile escribió alrededor de 350 obras, entre ópera, ballets, una sinfonía coral, música de cámara y un centenar de canciones. Hoy, recordando ésta entusiasta y adelantada artista, quien llegó a ser miembro de la Orden Nacional de la Legión de Honor la Arabesque, No.1 Op. 61 para piano de manos de Mark Viner.

“Sound is sea: pattern lapping pattern… Matter delights in music, and became Bach,” the poet Ronald Johnson wrote as he contemplated matter, music, and the mind. The main article: https://www.brainpickings.org/2021/08/21/clemency-burton-hill-pablo-casals-albert-schweitzer-bach/ Her wonderful podcast about playing Bach every day: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000ytzj

It seems that every minute of every day, a musician is playing Bach's music somewhere on our planet. Clemency Burton-Hill charts the playing of Bach across a day and around the globe with stories from musicians who each have a daily ritual of playing some of this music. Ilay Kenes is an 11-year-old Belgian boy who plays some Bach on his guitar every morning when he gets out of bed. Other musicians around the world who play Bach every morning include Masaaki Suzuki on the harpsichord or organ in Tokyo, Hungarian-born organist Xaver Varnus in his own church in Nova Scotia, pianist Grant McLachlan looking out at Table Mountain from his house in Cape Town and cellist Nicola Yamazaki in Austria. Some musicians play Bach every day but not at a set time. Iranian-born pianist Ramin Bahrami plays Bach whenever he needs him throughout the day. In one of Kenya's largest slums, David Joroge shares the cello he plays with other students at the Art of Music Foundation and so he plays Bach Cello Suites every day, at a time when there's a cello free. Finally, British viola player, Robin Ireland plays last thing at night before bed in his house in Brittany. Where did this daily ritual of playing Bach every day begin? Maybe with Beethoven or perhaps Mendelssohn. But it was the Catalan cellist Pablo Casals who wrote, "For the past 80 years I have started each day in the same manner. It is not a mechanical routine but something essential to my daily life. I go to the piano, and I play two preludes and fugues of Bach. I cannot think of doing otherwise. It is a sort of benediction on the house. Each day is something new, fantastic, unbelievable. That is Bach, like nature, a miracle!" Clemency herself either listened to or played Bach every day for as long as she can remember. But in January 2020 she experienced a brain haemorrhage, and everything changed. After emergency surgery, she was unconscious for 17 days and then slowly emerged. She's still working her way back to her own daily encounter with Bach's music.

Oprah Winfrey’s interview with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex was broadcast last night on CBS in the US. It is due to air here in the UK tonight on ITV at 9pm. What might be the repercussions of the interview with the two former working Royals? Emma talks to Jennie Bond who was the BBC’s royal correspondent for 14 years and Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, activist, lawyer and author of This is Why I Resist. The broadcaster Clemency Burton Hill tells us about a special one off episode of the Classical Fix podcast celebrating women composers that she recorded with Emma Barnett as part of International Women's Day. British-Iranian charity worker Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has been released from house arrest, but faces fresh charges next weekend. Nazanin was detained in Tehran in 2016, and sentenced to five years in prison for plotting to overthrow the Iranian government, which she has always denied. We hear the latest on her situation, from Richard Ratcliffe and Faranak Amidi, BBC World Service's Women's Affairs journalist. A new charity is being launched called MOCRA or ‘Mothers of Children Conceived in Rape and Abuse' which aims to provide support and advice to women and girls who become pregnant from rape, sexual abuse, exploitation, trafficking and incest. They also want to provide services for children who find that they were conceived in acts of rape and sexual violence against their mothers. Founded by Dr Jessica Taylor, she joins Emma to discuss why her charity will fill a gap in services.

If you enjoy this podcast, consider buying me a coffee: https://adamstoner.com/support Hello, my name is Adam Ayrton Stoner and this is Recently, a monthly email round-up letting you know what I've been doing, reading, watching, listening to and enjoying recently. In a typical month, I usually finish these newsletters about a week before they land in your inbox but this edition was hard to write for reasons that, if you flick to any news channel for 30 seconds or more, are plainly obvious. This update began as a lengthy rant about a handful of wealthy companies that, in the face of lacking professional guidance of any kind, have announced a return to business as usual, all while your rule-abiding local florist, café or barbers stay shuttered – were we ever ‘all in this together'? If there is to be a silver lining for this virus, let it be further highlighting the dogshit companies to avoid when we come out of lockdown, none of which have ever featured in these newsletters. Here's the much more simple (and relaxed!) form this edition ended up taking instead. This month, I've been: Producing and editing Stuck at Home for the UK's children's radio station Fun Kids, which you can find wherever you get your podcasts and for a short while on BBC Sounds. Providing guidance to friends on starting their own podcasts, including which platforms to use and what it should look and sound like. If you're thinking of starting your own podcast and are after feedback, want some artwork, or want to find out how a producer can help lift your solo project to the next level, send me an email. I've also been writing a lot – in Standard Notes, the end-to-end encrypted note taking app, about lockdown and some of my worries about it. I've been using the time at home to get a grip on the mundane day-to-day tasks that sometimes escape us in our usual lives. I've been upgrading a lot of my monthly subscriptions to annual ones, eschewing monthly bills and saving some cash in the long-run and giving everything a good clean and tidy! I've been listening to: I've created an Apple Music playlist of the tunes I've been listening to recently. Tap here to give it a listen (or take a look, so you can find tunes on your platform of choice). It contains tunes from Hayley Williams' solo project Petals for Armor, Broadcast, Cornelius, Gorillaz, Femi Kuti, and more. I've also been listening to longform interviews from the likes of Thom Yorke and more, most courtesy of Apple's radio station, Beats 1, which, although I ripped into it in my 2016 university dissertation, is absolutely killing it right now. My opinion on the station has almost 180º'd – I need to write a follow-up! I've been watching: Masterclass. I'm not one of these people eager to make every waking moment of their life a mission in productivity but Masterclass is a fantastic way to fill moments you might be saving instead of, say, commuting. Vogue's Creative Director Anna Wintour has been teaching me leadership, a former FBI negotiator has been telling me how to haggle, and Gordon Ramsay has been teaching me cookery, all from the comfort of my bed. I've been reading: Why Social Media is Ruining Your Life, a pop-science ‘my experience' book (it's sold in Urban Outfitters, which tells you all you need to know) but an interesting insight nonetheless. Against Creativity by Oli Mould Year of Wonder: Classical Music for Every Day by BBC Radio 3 presenter Clemency Burton-Hill. The pick for May 3rd is Piano Trio No. 2 in E flat major, K. 498 (‘Kegelstatt'), III: Rondo – Allegretto by Mozart, which you can presumably find on your streaming platform of choice

On this episode of How I Hustle, host Emma-Louise Boynton speaks to award-winning violinist, Clemmie, who has played all over the world. She started her career in print journalism as a staff editor at Vogue and has since gone onto write for a litany of brilliant publications ranging from the Guardian to the Economist to the Time Literary Supplement, as well as authoring several books. Her broadcasting career began when she became part as part of the presenting team for the Proms for the BBC, before going on to present BBC Radio 3’s classical music weekend breakfast show and then later became the performing arts reporter for The Culture Show on BBC 2.Clemmie is now living across the pond in New York, where she is the Creative Director of Music and Arts at leading classical music station, WQXR-FM with whom she recently launched a fantastic new podcast series called ‘The Open Ears Project’, which we’ll be discussing later.

This week we are in conversation with the members of the genre defying ensemble and "classically trained garage band" Time For Three. Our host and artistic director Clemmie Burton-Hill talked to them earlier this year after being "in awe" of their interpretation and performance of J.S. Bach's Chaconne, Partita No.2 at a private Soiree at Joshua Bell's New York home.  Here, Ranaan Meyer, Charles Yang, Nick Kendall, talk about improvisation, connection with the audiences, taking the freedom of moving between genres and playing hungover. And then they play that piece, their desert island companion: Bach's Chaconne – or their take on it.   You can also watch their performance as part of WQXR's "Offstage" series here.

Author of Year of Wonder: Classical Music to Enjoy Every Day Interview starts at 18:16 and ends at 42:30 “I wanted to demystify the music itself, and I wanted to humanize the people who created it, because I think we often think about classical composers being these dead, white European guys invariably from Germany and Austria somewhere in the 18th century maybe with a frock coat, maybe with a powdered wig, definitely on some kind of pedestal occupying a lofty, elevated  space that has no bearing on real people's everyday lives. What's incredibly humbling when you start to get to know these composers is that they're just human beings like you and me, just trying to survive their lives, to express themselves through this particular art form.” News “No thank you, Mr. Pecker” by Jeff Bezos at Medium - February 7, 2019 "Facing opposition, Amazon reconsiders N.Y. headquarters site, two officials say" by The Washington Post - February 8, 2019 Kindle Paperwhite on sale for $100 - $30 off Tech Tip MobiScribe E-ink Notepad - $214 MobiScribe v5.18 Beginner's guide Rocketbook Everlast Reusable Smart Notebook - $30 AmazonBasics Alexa Microwave - $42 Interview with Clemency Burton-Hill Year of Wonder: Classical Music to Enjoy Day by Day by Clemency Burton-Hill Year of Wonder playlists at iTunes and Spotify WQXR Radio in New York City Aria Code podcast Scala Radio launch in the UK Content Early Riser: A Novel by Jasper Fforde - to be released February 12, 2019 Winter World by A.
