    • Music Interviews

The UK’s National Health Service or NHS celebrates 72 years this week and Alex Aldren, a doctor and tenor whose singing in hospitals during the corona-virus epidemic inspired people as far afield as Argentina, joins me for a chat. We talk about his journey through medicine, his studies at the Royal Academy of Music in London, the impact of music on well-being and health, as well as the value of the arts and the need to maintain a constant two-way conversation between those who create the arts and those who fund it.
