A fascinating conversation with Orphy Robinson

Welcome to the latest episode of Harmonious World, where I interview musicians about how their music helps make the world more harmonious.For this episode, I had a great chat with multi-instrumentalist Orphy Robinson, who I’ve always admired as a musician but also as an influence on the music business and education. Orphy is currently Artist-in-Residence at Cambridge Jazz Festival 2025 and we discuss how that happened, as well as lots of discussion of his background in music. Do check out the list of events happening and get along to hear some great jazz if you’re anywhere nearby.This is a longer episode - let me know what you think about shorter or longer episodes.Thanks to Orphy for allowing me to use clips from both When Tomorrow Comes and The Vibes Describes, both on the highly prestigious Blue Note Records, alongside our conversation.Get in touch to let me know what you think!Thank you for listening to Harmonious World.
