Inside Music for BBC Radio 3
Earlier this year, I recorded an episode of Inside Music for BBC Radio 3 - a two-hour deep dive into some of my favourite pieces of classical music. Featuring everything from string quartets by Haydn and Ravel to choral works by Caroline Shaw and Julia Wolfe, I tried to create an eclectic playlist that showcased the huge variety of work by both historical and contemporary composers. It aired on Saturday 2 December and is available for a month on BBC Sounds.

The past couple of years have shown just how precarious working in the arts can be. Whilst things are back up and running, it's still very difficult to maintain a career as a freelance composer. From as little as £2.50 a month, you can help support the work that I do and get everything from bespoke playlists and blogs through to discounted releases and tickets to events in return!
