Classical Gas

Every Sunday I host a radio show on Great British Radio. Each week I take my guest on a trip down memory lane, exploring their childhood, their steps to success, how they hit the big time, their proudest achievements and what the future may hold.

Throughout I will also be chatting about and playing some incredible classical music; which has helped shape their lives, their earliest classical music memories, their favourite composer's early compositions and even some guilty pleasures.
