A musical map to calm ft. Alice Boyd

Let the music be your guide for another journey into calm… Scottish composer and musician Erland Cooper invites you to take a moment to breathe and figure out the path ahead, with a musical exploration inspired by maps. There’ll be music from H. Takahashi, Laurel Halo and John Adams. Plus we’ll visit the sonic safe haven of the musician and sound artist Alice Boyd, with one of her own field recordings - transporting us to a cosy shepherd’s hut in the Peak District as a storm rages outside.
