How to support the development of young artists: journey from conservatoire to concert hall

In this episode of The Culture Bar podcast series, we explore what the career paths of young artists look like and how we can support up-and-coming artists. We will unpick barriers to entry for young musicians and understand what skills are required, what success looks like, and what talent managers look for when signing a new artist.

Our incredible panel includes:

• Lydia Connolly – Head of Artist Management, HarrisonParrott
• Randall Goosby – American violinist, Decca Classics recording artist, and former Winner of Young Concert Artists International Auditions, amongst many other accolades
• Benjamin Woodroffe – President, Global Foundation for the Performing Arts

Hosted by HP’s Henry Southern
