Challenging the Senses

Mary Anne finds out if music can be improved by engaging the senses and talks to Bob Riley, CEO of the Manchester Camerata.

Can music be improved by engaging the senses? We find out ... Prepare to use your eyes, your nose and your tastebuds.

Mary Anne's guest is Bob Riley, CEO of the Manchester Camerata. The Camerata orchestra host a very exciting concert on 1 March at the Royal Exchange Theatre. 'Challenging the Senses', part of their UpClose series, sees the use of everything from scent bombs to blindfolds during an eclectic programme of chamber music, challenging audiences to experience music in a completely different, immersive way.

On this episode we will preview that concert, and hopefully heighten your own auditory experience for these three hours ...
