Keelan Carew

Tonight, what could big beats from Little Simz, a quirky waltz by Britten and a Charlie Brown Christmas possibly have in common? Join Keelan to find out.

Keelan Carew finds the unlikely connections between five pieces throughout musical history. Tonight, what could big beats from Little Simz, a quirky Waltz by Britten and a Charlie Brown Christmas possibly have in common? Join Keelan to find out.

A new voice for Radio 3 - Keelan is a pianist and works in musical education with young people:

"I think music is universal, but each of us discovers it through our own special circumstances, so Sounds Connected is a little insight into my path.

I was the only musician in the house growing up, so ended up with pretty eclectic musical loves. Whether influenced by my passion for the piano and deep-dives into lost keyboard masterpieces – or my sister playing her latest finds on long car journeys, I love finding those unlikely musical connections from Bartok and Afro-beats, or Mongol voices to minimalists."
