Ep. 59: Stephen Maddock

Last month, I recorded a podcast interview with Chief Executive of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra Stephen Maddock. In this discussion, we talked about how Stephen got into the world of arts management and what led him to the esteemed post he's in today. We also discuss what makes the CBSO distinctive, the role of the orchestra within the city of Birmingham, artistic programming and challenges of Stephen's position. Stephen's bio: https://cbso.co.uk/profile/stephen-maddock. Podcast recorded 15 February 2022 at the CBSO Centre, Birmingham; posted 8 March 2022. Music by Helena and Annabelle Lee. Many thanks to RDMR and the CBSO for the performance of Panufnik's Sinfonia Sacra and Orff's Carmina Burana at Symphony Hall in April 2023 - a truly spectacular and dramatic interpretation!
