Sounds for fresh starts ft. Stephen Fry

Available for 26 days

Scottish composer Erland Cooper returns to the captain’s seat for a new series of Ultimate Calm, steering us into calm waters with musical selections close to his heart, guided by the elemental, the natural world and his experiences growing up in Orkney. To kick off this new series, Erland looks for inspiration in the very concept of beginning itself, with a selection of music that has the feeling of starting anew. We’ll hear music from the likes of Laura Misch, Robbie Basho and Ichiko Aoba, and as in every episode of Ultimate Calm, we’ll travel to the musical safe haven of a very special guest. We begin this series with none other than Sir Stephen Fry, who shares the cinematic piece by Liszt that he finds utterly ravishing. Produced by Kit Callin A Reduced Listening production
