Episode 9: Muriel Herbert
from Down with the Patri-Bachy Hosted by debut podcasts
This week, we bring you an episode recorded across two continents, ten days apart, and in the middle of a storm.What could possibly go wrong? Ellie is recording from Kenya, Ben is battling Storm Darragh, and the result is perhaps our most chaotic episode yet. But don’t worry — Ben’s exquisite vamping skills keep us (somewhat) on track while we repeatedly lose connection, then pick up perfectly where we left off (Ben was, of course, still at his desk waiting the entire time). When we finally get there, we talk about Muriel Herbert — a brilliant composer whose music is so stunning that Roger Quilter should start looking nervous. We make our case for why she should be at the heart of every classical singer’s repertoire, and Ellie casually predicts her full engagement while she’s at it. Spoiler alert 🚨 she was right 🤭 It’s a mess, but it’s our mess, and we love it.
