Academy mention on ABC

Have a listen to this wonderful interview of Dr Jonathon Welch (Choir of Hard Knocks) on ABC Sunday Afternoons with Angela Catterns. They talk about the essential role The Arts are playing during this stressful and sometimes isolating times.


It's an interesting topic, as The Arts (along with other professions of course), have been hit particularly hard during this time. Many people have turn to music, visual art, literature and dance as a way to cope with this new way of life, whereas we have seen additional cuts to funding, adding insult to injury.


Angela and Jonathon also discuss technology; having to adapt to new platforms, and the new role it is playing in connecting people in the community again. Oh, and Jonathon also gives the academy director a mention!


Skip ahead to 1:36:30 for the interview:
