The best of the world's arts, film, music and literature brought to you every day. Presented by Lawrence Pollard. Imogen Heap is a Grammy winning British multi-instrumentalist and composer who has spent six weeks in China creating a musical piece from sounds around her; leaves rustling, birds tweeting, doors slamming. She tells us how it came about. (Image: Imogen Heap performs on stage during day three of the Bluesfest Music Festival at Tyagarah Tea Tree Farm on 23 April 2011 in Byron Bay, Australia.
