Cherry Forbes, OAE’s Director of Education, is the powerhouse behind OAE’s all-embracing philosophy of providing access to classical music for everyone. She organises musical events across the UK, starting with tots and reaching across the range to care homes and hospitals. Her energy and enthusiasm continue to inspire all of us who are involved in the programme.

Tea with Netty is our podcast hosted by viola player Annette Isserlis (Netty). Over a cuppa (or something a little stronger…), Netty chats with a variety of conductors, players and other guests as she ‘spills the tea’ on the side of classical music you don’t normally hear.
