Chandos was named Gramophone’s Label of the Year at the 2022 Gramophone Classical Music Awards in October – a perfect excuse for a series of podcasts focusing on some of the label’s key artists and the people who steer and shape the label. 

John Wilson, whose recordings feature regularly in Gramophone's monthly Editor's Choice lists, has amassed a sizeable catalogue for Chandos and it continues to grow with recordings with his own Sinfonia of London, the BBC Philharmonic and BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.

James Jolly caught up with John recently to talk about the Sinfonia of London and the recording plans he has with them, as well as his series focusing on the music of Eric Coates, Aaron Copland and Richard Rodney Bennett.
