In this episode, we'll be hearing from Michael Seal, Associate Conductor of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, and now, podcaster. Michael has been creating a new podcast over the lockdown period called A Mic on the Podium. This is a series of fascinating conversations with his conductor colleagues, in which they openly discuss their journey into music, the art of conducting and their experiences of the profession. Check it out! We discuss the inspiration behind Michael's podcast and what he's been doing during this free time. We also learn about his background as a violinist and conductor, and hear some of his thoughts on the craft of conducting. Michael offers some really useful advice to young conductors towards the end of this discussion. Many thanks to Michael for talking especially for this podcast!
