An Autumn Announcement

Elizabeth Alker with a late-night journey through new music from today’s most exciting genre-defying artists.

Join Elizabeth Alker on a journey through landscapes of ambient and experimental sounds as she offers up a selection of fresh music from genre-defying artists. Expect to hear from emerging independent creators whose work plays with orchestral textures and classical form as well as the latest from a new generation of contemporary composers whose output is infused with the spirit of rock, pop and electronica.

Amongst the choices in this week's playlist are a previously unbroadcast live performance by the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Concert Orchestra of Moor Mother's riveting orchestral arrangement of her original composition Dream Culture. The piece was performed in May at the Unclassified Live concert on London's Southbank. There's also music from Erland Cooper's latest album, which carries within its sound the effects of having been buried in the ground for over a year.

And Elizabeth shares news of the ‘Tune in to Nature’ prize, a project run by The University of Derby in conjunction with the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, The Conservation Foundation, EarthPercent and Sounds Right, a global music initiative to recognise the value of nature.
