The Journeys of Discovery series of podcasts from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Seven Hills continues with broadcaster and writer Petroc Trelawny. Journeys of Discovery explores the life stories and passions of special guests from a range of careers, and delves into how music has shaped their journeys.
In this episode of Journeys of Discovery, Michael Hayman sits down with Petroc Trelawny, classical music broadcaster, and the voice behind BBC Radio 3’s Breakfast programme.
Petroc reflects on the influence of music and music performance, classical and otherwise, on identity and emotions, and discusses his new book, Trelawny’s Cornwall, a part history, part memoir, which explores the past, present and future of the region.
