Joanna and the Maestro Pod cast
I have enjoyed this podcast more than I thought possible. I have always loved classical music and attended two schools where we were given very unusual opportunities even if you were not musician I played the violin very badly because I failed to put in the effort I should have even though I loved playing and being part of the orchestra but I really wanted to learn the piano properly- youngest of 8 my mother refused to pay for any more lessons- the violin was free and we had my grandmother’s violin! I attended many operas and ballets in the 6th form, Sadler’s Wells and Covent Garden for peanuts. I introduced my husband to Opera even though he was and is a pianist and very knowledgeable about all music- particularly jazz but now a real opera buff and regular attendant of concert performances. Why I love your podcast, now getting to the point, is I have regained my love of Mozart particularly and The Maestro has encouraged me to extend my knowledge and enjoyment of all genres. A lot of our retirement is taken up with childcare(8 ages between 4- 14) our own 4 children learnt several instruments each achieving grades 5,6,7,&8 and now in their 40’s still in some way are involved. The grandchildren have always been exposed to music, love singing and listening, the drums, guitar and short spells learning piano by the 4 eldest have been the choices. My 5 year old has begged to learn the piano, his mother was a good pianist and has always wanted to continue so we have now bought a piano for them and I’m hoping little Louis will emulate his mum. This summer I aim to have” breakfast tune a day beginning with Mozart”with them. Thank you Joanna and The Maestro. Please continue. With thanks, Diana Flight. PS sorry completely unrelated , Joanna, I love your “Conversations of a long Marriage”. I love Roger Allan but sometimes he becomes muddled with Stephen! I do hope there’s going to be a series 5.

This was a fun and informative listen. Joanna Lumley has a lovely voice and is really easy to listen to. I feel like I know her husband a bit more now as well and his musical background is an interesting one. It has given me a new love for classical music and I look forward to listening to the...Read full review »

I could listen to Dame Joanna all day. This podcast is marvelous. I studied history of art, but history of music classes at my university were all aimed at musicians. I was fascinated, but could not keep up with the music theory. These episodes fill in some of my blank spots. Absolutely fabulous.
