From the Archive: George Benjamin at the Barbican

In an archive interview from March 2016, Ben Eshmade speaks to composer George Benjamin and counter tenor Iestyn Davies, just before the premiere of the then new work, Dream of the Song, performed as part of a three concert series, entitled 'Benjamin at the Barbican'. This podcast has turned out to be a document of the composer and the composition process just before the premiere of this piece. From the Archive sees us dig into our extensive contemporary and classical music and cinema podcast archive as we rediscover interviews and discussions with artists, with our long-standing producer and presenter, Ben Eshmade. Subscribe to Nothing Concrete on Acast, Spotify, iTunes or wherever you find your podcast Hosted on Acast.
