Sunday 26 June 2005 12:00-13:00 (Radio 3)
Michael Berkeley talks to the sculptor Emily Young, who is carrying on a family tradition: her grandmother, the sculptor Kathleen Scott, was a colleague of Rodin. Emily Young has been carving stone for the past two decades, and her latest project, Earth Angel, involves the creation and installation of 12 monumental carved stone heads on all continents of the world.
Her musical tastes range from Beethoven and Schubert to music from Corsica and Rumania, Brian Eno's Bell Studies, and Michael Nyman's The Upside Down Violin.
