44. Sam McShane on class and accessibility in the classical music industry

In Episode 44 of The Classical Circuit, host Ella Lee talks to Sam McShane, Artistic Director of King’s Place in London, on the various factors that make up the picture of class and how they can affect accessibility to and experiences in the classical music industry. She also shared the highs of watching a performance that brought together different relationships she’d nurtured throughout her career, and how the time she didn’t get a job she desperately wanted ended up being one of the best things that could have happened at the time.  -------------------King's Place-------------------Follow The Classical Circuit on InstagramDid you enjoy this episode?
