Mahaliah Edwards

Mahaliah Edwards with the quirky and personal connections that link her choice of music.

Mahaliah Edwards's connections begin with Eric Coates who lived near where Mahaliah grew up in Nottingham. Like Coates, Mahaliah has a passion for chamber music and we hear music from the father of the string quartet, Joseph Haydn. The Montgomery Variations by the American composer Margaret Bonds leads Mahaliah to one of her favourite tracks by Snarky Puppy and Salif Keita whose rhythms make her think about the driving claves rhythm of "Escualo" by Astor Piazzolla.

This new series of three episodes introduces presenter Mahaliah Edwards. Mahaliah is a professional violinist, educator and passionate advocator for the power of music. She is an alumna of 大象传媒 Open Music, which brings creatives and musicians of all genres, styles and backgrounds from across the UK to the 大象传媒.
