Spotlight is the Music Network's regular podcast shining the spotlight on people involved in music in their working life.

Professor Jeremy Begbie is Thomas A. Langford Distinguished Research Professor of Theology at Duke Divinity School, and the McDonald Agape Director and founder of Duke Initiatives in Theology and the Arts. He is also a Senior Member at Wolfson College, Cambridge, and an Affiliated Lecturer in the Faculty of Music at the University of Cambridge. He is an ordained minister of the Church of England and a professionally trained musician who has performed extensively as a pianist and conductor.

In this fascinating podcast recorded in Cambridge in May 2022, Music Network co-ordinators Tom and Becky Chevis interview Jeremy about his life, his journey to faith, his subsequent work, and the touchpoints between music and faith.
