Cellist spots fellow cellist at home train station - THAT SHE DOESN'T KNOW. Commence awkward staring. What do you do, especially if you don't have your instrument, and can't illustrate your solidarity?
Nina Harries is my guest this week. We chat about her life as a bassist and vocalist, her musical family, imposter syndrome, working with the Akram Khan company, and her upcoming album. Also mentioned are muddy gigs, carting around double basses, and crying at nature, especially mountains.
Don't miss this week's Music College Didn't Prepare Me segment of photographic consequences.
