Late Works: By Ear #14

The radio counterpart to live intermedia event series Late Works, hosted by founder Joseph Bradley Hill. Each month a selection of artists respond to the show on postcards and send them in as inspiration for the next. Running through the shows are a modular stem experiment in which musicians improvise live to original 15 minute compositions.

In this episode: "P.R.E" - The 'By Ear' recordings resume with Otto Willberg's double bass improvisation over Pike Ogilvy's drums, after loose association in response to Gvidas Pakarklis' postcards. Including recordings of Bridget Riley, Wassily Kandinsky, Björk & Walter Benjamin.
