If you’ve ever been driven mad by endless coughing during one of your favourite symphonies at a concert hall, you’re not alone. Listen in to our chat on this ticklish issue with music writer Jessica Duchen and Gareth Davies, principal flute with the London Symphony Orchestra.
VoR's Alice Lagnado was joined in our London studio by Jessica, who writes about music for The Independent, and Gareth, principal flute with the London Symphony Orchestra.
