A land without music?
Today’s episode is a full length interview with a British composer whose works include symphonies, concertos and chamber pieces, but who also looks beyond the classical tradition to Celtic music and jazz. Indeed, some of those concertos feature fairly unusual solo instruments including accordion, saxophone & clàrsach.
In 2020 she composed April for Sound World’s lockdown album Reflections and, during the same period, she reached a rather different audience through her trio’s Thursday evening doorstep performances of jazz standards and pop classics.
