Episode Breaking the silence on sexual abuse in the classical world
Lara St. John was sexually assaulted by her aged instructor when she was a teenager at the prestigious Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. After she went public in 2019, Lara was inundated with messages from others who said they had suffered similar abuse in the classical music world.

She joined Tom Power in the Q studio to talk about this darker side of classical music and the changes she hopes her film can help make.
