Time to tune into nature ft. Ivo Graham
Erland Cooper shares calming music that celebrates the fauna that surrounds us, from birdsong to the buzzing of pollinators. Plus a safe haven from comedian Ivo Graham.
Continuing his musical celebration of the natural world, Scottish composer Erland Cooper turns his attention to animal life for this episode. We’ll hear plenty of birdsong and the buzzing of insects, as well as a couple of tracks that are favoured by Erland’s dog Morricone.
Also, we’ll visit the musical safe haven of the comedian Ivo Graham, who shares a touching tale of a snake’s funeral soundtracked by Brian Eno.
