If you think classical music just isn't for you, maybe this first episode could persuade you to try a symphony or two.  Orchestral music is an incredibly powerful medium for engaging with emotions we might not otherwise be willing or able to face - and we do need to be able to allow and fully experience all, not just some of our emotions, if we are to thrive.Musician, writer and teacher Frances Butt interviews cellist Tirke Linnemann about what classical music does for her; with a few suggestions for listeners along the way.Here are the pieces discussed, for anyone who wants to listen to any of them:Brahms Symphony no. 1 (Leonard Bernstein, Vienna Philharmonic)Tchaikovsky Symphony no. 6 (Tugan Sokhiev, National Orchestra of Toulouse)Rachmaninov Symphony no. 2 (André Previn, London Symphony OrchestraBeethoven Piano Concerto no. 1 (Martha Argerich, Gábor Takács-Nagy, Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music)Bach Cello Suites (YoYo Ma)(special mention for Suite 5 Sarabande)--Recorded January 2021Re-edited January 2022Other music: FrancesJoin Frances on Instagram:@francesbbristolor LinkedIn:linkedin.com/in/francesbvoiceOr visit Frances's website:francesbutt.com
