In this episode, Netty sits down with one of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment’s founding members, Cat Mackintosh to talk about how the OAE was formed back in the 1980s, and what else was happening in the early music scene back then. The pair also share a giggle about what is the most democratic music and what happens when a conductor suggests something that musicians don’t like!

Tea with Netty is the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment’s 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.
