No one? Thanks a bunch….So here it is, episode 100 and for this special edition Seb and Verity are joined by multi-instrumentalist legend and dear friend Hannah Lawrance. Hannah stipulated from early days that she would only come onto the pod if she was asking the questions…..with that in mind, we’ve collected various former TIAB guests to put questions to Seb and Verity via Hannah, whilst they have sneakily turned the tables back on her too, mwah ha ha!Warning; this episode features some serious belting along with reminiscences of early meetings, past episodes and cringe worthy experiences. There are contributions from loads of TIAB favourites and a message from some guy who’s profile was significantly raised by appearing on this podcast….You are welcome Mr Brydon.Thank you dear listeners for your continued support and bring on the next 100 eps, woo hoo!You can follow Three In a Bar on Instagram @threeinabarpodhttps://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/We are on Twitter @threeinabarpod https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpodAnything you’d like to share with us?

Aileen Sweeney

In the first of two special episodes linked to the Cheltenham festival, this week’s guest is composer Aileen Sweeney. Aileen has written a piece which forms part of the site specific work ‘Byrdwatching’ which premieres on sat 8 July.Even by TIAB’s usual standards this is a brilliantly bonkers episode which careers around a whole host of subjects - with a smattering of music chat thrown in for good measure!Aileen talks about taking an extended break from composing, getting the rage at Ceilidhs, her opinions on Beethoven &amp; Byrd, writing for recorder consort - not something she’d naturally have chosen but has embraced with open arms. She also discusses a close call with a writing deadline and a fail safe compositional tool…Seb and Verity both recount near death experiences had that week and give Aileen some words of warning about upcoming plans! Thanks to Aileen for her patience with extreme tech issues at the start and to the criminal justice system for releasing her from Jury Duty before the interview!You can follow Three In a Bar on Instagram @threeinabarpodhttps://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/We are on Twitter @threeinabarpod https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpodAnything you’d like to share with us?

Matthew Barley

This week’s guest wins the award for most glamorous location for a live link up - It’s internationally renowned ‘cellist Matthew Barley and he’s in the rainforests of Brazil!Matthew kindly took time away from his holiday to chat with Seb and Verity about his soon to be released album Electric. This album brings together a unique collection of works for cello and electronics from the last 40 years and features compositions by the likes of Anna Meredith, Joby Talbot, Jonathan Harvey and Oded Ben-Tal.Matthew talks about the joys of being hands on through the editing process, how he grapples with letting go of imperfections whilst constantly striving for improvements. He also chats about his ‘Around Britten’ tour and the weird and wonderful venues he performed in - think caves, a lighthouse &amp; a swimming pool amongst others!They also discuss the conundrum of getting audiences into contemporary music concerts and Matthew’s excitement/trepidation at recording his own compositions for the first time….There are classic Zencastr issues which present in the form of a healthy two second delay. Seb has worked his editing magic on it but there may be a few eggy moments which we can assure you are purely tech related….we hope!Tracks featured in this episode:Noticing Things: II.

He also discusses his new commission Creation which will be premiered on 23 March at St Giles Cripplegate, artistic influences, setting texts, the ‘golden rule of three’ and his freaky memory!Find out more about Jacques on his website https://jacquescohen.co.uk/For details of Jacques’ premiere of Creation at St Giles’ Cripplegate go to https://jacquescohen.co.uk/events/lloyds-choir-centenary-spring-concert/You can follow Three In a Bar on Instagram @threeinabarpodhttps://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/We are on Twitter @threeinabarpod https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpodAnything you’d like to share with us?

They discuss the premise of this piece and it’s site specific nature - at one stage a UK monastery tour is mooted although not sure Alex is convinced….They talk about Tangram, the collaborative cross arts ensemble Alex co-founded and some of the influential relationships and new possibilities this has led to.Alex talks about Untold, his ‘Anti Opera’ and how this work confronts the issues of racism towards East Asians communities, particularly in opera.They discuss getting a work/life balance, experimenting with found sounds, Alex’s love of musical theatre and what a Yangquin is - 50 points if you already know!Read more about Alex on his website: <a href="https://www.alexhocomposer.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.alexhocomposer.com/</a>Listen to Alex's Soundcloud here: <a href="https://soundcloud.com/alexhocomposer/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://soundcloud.com/alexhocomposer/</a>And find out more about Tangram here: <a href="https://www.tangramsound.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.tangramsound.com/</a>You can follow Three In a Bar on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">@threeinabarpod</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/</a>We are on Twitter <a href="https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpod" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">@threeinabarpod</a> <a href="https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpod" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpod</a>Anything you’d like to share with us?

88. The Ivors Composer Awards 2022

This week Seb and Verity chat to violinist supremo Millie Ashton.This is actually Millie's third appearance on the pod having popped up briefly in Cat Parker's episode and featured as part of the Ashton/Melhuish dynasty back in 2020.....a lot has changed for her since then, including graduating from GSMD after (gulp) 16 years!Millie chats about her days living a double life as a student by day, busy freelancer by evening and hard partying fresher by night! They also discuss taking the next step away from music college, guest leading the 2nd violins at the Philharmonia and how she approaches this role. Millie talks about her time at Prussia Cove on the highly prestigious chamber music course as well as her new found love of all things outdoors, wild swimming and finding time for other things away from music.She suffered with some horrific health issues right at the crux point in her studies and tells Seb and Verity all about that awful time and how she managed to get through it. It's fairly graphic and pretty shocking.....but lets just say, be thankful you can't see the photos!Millie is a truly incredible person who has achieved so much already at just 24 years old - and through some seriously challenging circumstances. This episode would make a very interesting and insightful listen for anyone studying or just finishing their studies at music college....as well as anyone else who likes a darned good catch with an old pal!You can follow Three In a Bar on Instagram @threeinabarpodhttps://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/We are on Twitter @threeinabarpod https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpodAnything you’d like to share with us?

Look who’s back……it’s friend (and In Verity’s case, husband) of the podcast Robert Simmons.It was brought to our attention that last time we had Rob on the pod he maybe didn’t get the opportunity to chat about the things he wanted to discuss. With this in mind we’ve had him back on….and done exactly the same thing again!This conversation covers his job with Royal Ballet Sinfonia, fitness regimes, the Royal Family, feeling your age (or not), side by side schemes, what you find when you google Robert Simmons and much more - occasionally music related.If you like a good old waffly chat tune in, sit back and enjoy!Check out Birmingham Royal Ballet’s current tour here: https://www.brb.org.uk/Take a look at what Estilo String Quartet are up to and have a listen to their latest album at https://www.estilostringquartet.com/You can follow Three In a Bar on Instagram @threeinabarpodhttps://www.instagram.com/threeinabarpod/We are on Twitter @threeinabarpod https://www.twitter.com/threeinabarpodAnything you’d like to share with us?
