Episode 113 - Stéphane Denève

Having worked with Stéphane Denève on a project together in the summer of 2022, I knew he would be a brilliant guest and a very interesting person to chat with. It helped that we had become friends very quickly indeed!

I discovered who his "Yoda" was, he gave a really brilliant answer to Question 7 that I just did not see coming, and I heard how an experience in the "night bar" of the Ritz Hotel, Paris, changed his life!

Here is a link to Stéphane's website to see the video we discuss of him assisting Sir Georg Solti in London -https://www.stephanedeneve.com/video/
