HarrisonParrott’s Henry Southern talks with Mark Pemberton OBE, CEO of the Association of British Orchestras, about the current landscape in the UK orchestral sector and classical music more broadly.
Mark provides an insightful snapshot of the challenges facing UK orchestra managers today covering a broad range of topics including COVID, Brexit, sustainability, inclusion and diversity, relevance, and funding structures. We also reflect on the resilience and entrepreneurship of colleagues within the industry.
