Jessica Duchen sat down with Fanny Mendelssohn's three-times-great-granddaughter, the filmmaker Sheila Hayman to talk about history's neglected female composers.

Stand-up comedian, writer, actor and director, Chris Addison tells us exactly what we need to know before coming to classical concert.. and it might not be at all what you'd expect!

We explore Anton Bruckner's enigmatic persona and his music's associations with religious, metaphysical, and mystical experiences.

Why have we commissioned four women composers to write original pieces inspired by Fanny Mendelssohn's piano cycle Das Jahr?

Secret themes, lost manuscripts, broken celebrity crushes… we explore the myriad ways that the music in our 2024/25 season teases us and why that is part of the thrill.
