Featuring beautiful melodies and spine-tingling harmonies from composers including William Grant Still, Imogen Holst, and Robert Schumnann, Sian is captivated by the sound of a blackbird while out to Take a Breath, and Professor Catherine Loveday explores whether musical training can help with our memory.
