Speaking Musically by Raymond Holden
The Royal Academy of Music is an extraordinary place with extraordinary people – for 200 years, it has been training and inspiring successive generations of music makers and leaders from all over the world. As we enter our third century, we are more confident than ever in our ability to shape the future of music by discovering and supporting talent wherever it exists, and by attracting the exceptional teachers and mentors who spark this talent. Between 2009 and 2018, the Royal Academy of Music hosted forty interviews with a group of eminent international musical figures. Sixteen of these interviews form part of ‘The Principal’s Interview’ series, led by the Academy’s Principal, Jonathan Freeman-Attwood, whilst the bulk of the remaining interviews were hosted by Raymond Holden. Each interview offers insights into the changing professional and artistic worlds of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, as well as serving as a valuable collection of exceptional life stories.
