The Built Environment

Nick Luscombe takes us on a personal journey through music and architecture with a focus on the built environment.

In this new series, Nick Luscombe takes us on a personal journey through music and architecture, exploring some of the connections and including specially commissioned works from composers responding to place. In this first episode, Nick considers the built environment - transport infrastructure, municipal buildings and housing, including music from Salvatore Sciarrino, Chris Watson and Yutaka Hirose. We hear the music choice of architect Elsie Owusu and a brand new work from Natalie Sharp (Lone Taxidermist) inspired by and using field recordings of Rochdale Town Hall.
