Resonance Radio Orchestra # 'Score For Open Heart Surgery On Charlie Watts'

The Resonance Radio Orchestra is a floating pool of musicians, engineers, sound-effects creators, actors, writers, composers and broadcasters devoted to making live radio-art. It is based in central London as the in-house artistic wing of Resonance104.4fm, under the direction of Ed Baxter.

The Resonance Radio Orchestra presents 'Score for Open Heart Surgery on Charlie Watts' as part of Radiophrenia. As an integral part of its week-long celebration of the best and most innovative ideas in radio art, Radiophrenia presents a series of specially commissioned ‘live-to-air’ performances, of which this is but one. Selected artists have been asked to respond to the unique circumstances of creating a work that is simultaneously a live performance and a radio broadcast, reflecting the fact that there will be an audience present in the theatre in addition to an unseen audience of listeners at home.
