Composer Martin Suckling whose cello and electronics piece, Passacaglie, we are performing at our night on Friday 14 May gave an interview to Classic FM last week about his music and current projects, including Raise Your Voice. Listen to and download the interview here. He mentions Raise Your Voice right at the end, but have a listen to the whole thing and get a feel for one of the seven composers we’ll be showcasing in May.
