Janet Beat in Conversation

A chat with electronic composer Janet Beat and news of an opera specially tailored to the residents of Paisley.

Jamie talks to pioneering electronic composer Janet Beat ahead of Tectonics festival and hears about the album devoted to her music, released last year. Plus he’s joined by director of a unique opera production for the people of Paisley, with a specially translated libretto tapping into the local language and culture. Stravinsky’s piano music features in our Album of the Week and Jamie shares news of resources available during Musicians’ Mental Health Month this April.
