Available for 322 days

Join Icelandic composer and pianist Ólafur Arnalds for another unique musical adventure to seek out that all too elusive feeling of calm. Let Ólafur whisk you away from it all with a selection of songs inspired by the desire to travel the world. Ólafur shares music from the likes of Jóhann Jóhannsson, Alexandra Stréliski and Yumiko Morioka, and reflects on how music can be a way to fulfil urges to explore without leaving your home, transporting you out of your surroundings to an idyllic sonic escape. Plus, the American photographer and director Chris Burkard selects his sonic safe haven - the piece of music that brings him ultimate calm. He picks a reflective track that brings him peace no matter where he is in the world and makes him feel grateful. Produced by Katie Callin A Reduced Listening production for BBC Radio 3 and BBC Sounds
