Wendy Cope | Poet

All The Right Notes - Un pódcast de Our Media

Categorías:

Poet Wendy Cope joins our editorial assistant Freya Parr over Zoom from her home in Cambridgeshire to discuss how her enduring relationship with classical music has changed throughout the course of her life, with various careers as a primary school teacher, journalist and now poet. Introduced to the piano at the age of five, music has been a constant in Wendy’s life, with many of her poems having now been set by the UK’s leading composers. She tells us all about this fascinating process, and how it feels to hear your words set to music.   Website: classical-music.com/podcasts Recordings featured: Mozart: Serenade No. 13 ‘Eine Kleine Nachtmusik’: I.
