Late Works: By Ear #9

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, more loose association in response to postcards sent in by Oliver Pearce, Jordan Cook, Molly Anne Stocks & Jake Vine, including Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan & Muhal Richard Abrams. Pink Floyd's alternate soundtrack to John Latham's film "Speak" is also played, with a link below to watch along.

Watch John Latham’s “SPEAK” alongside the show for the final 10 minutes here, to sync up with the Pink Floyd alternate soundtrack.
