An incredible life story – and one for anybody interested in our orchestral history – from 96-year-old Livia Gollancz. Livia was Principal Horn at the Hallé from 1943-45 and played under Sir John Barbirolli during the Second World War, before going on to become Director of the Gollancz publishing company.

In this 20 minute interview, our Permanent Guest Leader Paul Barritt finds out more about Livia’s extraordinary life, her experiences of being a professional musician during wartime (including a tour of Belgium and Holland) and her abiding memories of her time with the orchestra.
