Gena Raps, editor of online arts magazine Persimmon Tree’s has been introducing readers to older women who have made — and are still making — uniquely significant contributions to the world of music since 2009. Gena first interviewed Thea back in 2009 when she started writing for the magazine, and revisited her work recently, following the ENO’s spectacular production of Mary, Queen of Scots. We’re highlighting these two great articles as testament to Gena’s great work and commitment to and recognition of Thea’s career.
