Скачать или смотреть NMC Listening Club #1 - Emily Howard 'Magnetite'

Composer Emily Howard is joined by pianist Alexandra Dariescu and mathematician, writer and presenter Marcus du Sautoy to take a deep dive into Emily Howard's debut album Magnetite, released on NMC in 2016. It was described on BBC Radio 3 Record Review as "a confident, major orchestral debut ... Scientific ideas brilliantly articulated in a score whose shimmering colours and essentially tonal trajectory are easily assimilated". As well as analysing the music, our guests will discuss the influences behind the pieces on the album: the oldest known magnetic substance (Magnetite), energy and solar flares (Solar) and the pioneering mathematician Ada Lovelace (Mesmerism).
