Ep. 11: Lucy Thraves

*All podcasts formerly on SoundCloud have now been redirected to Anchor.* 13-19 May 2019 is Mental Health Awareness Week, a week organised by UK charity the Mental Health Foundation that aims to get the nation talking about mental health. Mental health has been particularly prevalent in discussions within the classical music sector and I felt that it was very important to reflect on these for Mental Health Awareness Week. I met with Lucy Thraves, Editor of Classical Music Magazine, to talk about the magazine's year-long strategy to address mental health, through its campaign Harmony in Mind.
