29. Jack Bazalgette: defining the term 'classical music', getting projects off the ground, and bringing classical music to gig venues

In Episode 29 of The Classical Circuit, host Ella Lee talks to Jack Bazalgette, co-founder and Artistic Director of through the noise, and Artistic Director of the Cheltenham Music Festival. Jack talks about the appetite for classical music in intimate venues, and how there is a lot of crossover between the ‘noisenights’ demographic and that of conventional classical concerts. We talk about ‘classical music’ as an umbrella term, the future of classical music, and how through the noise initially got off the ground. Jack also shares his advice for others starting independent projects.
