94. Jacques Cohen

This week Seb and Verity head to central London for a chat with British composer and conductor Jacques Cohen.

TIAB regulars may well have heard our episode with esteemed arranger, violinist and educator Michelle Taylor Cohen - Jacques’ wife, in which he was oft mentioned so we were delighted to get the man himself!

This episode is particularly monumental for having the (unverified) longest answer to a question in podcasting history….well done Jacques. We must point out it is both fascinating and multilayered though.

Jacques chats about his education at Oxford university and some late night, last minute essay writing. He also discusses his new commission Creation which will be premiered on 23 March at St Giles Cripplegate, artistic influences, setting texts, the ‘golden rule of three’ and his freaky memory!
