Clive Myrie is in conversation with fellow journalists about the music they鈥檝e heard whilst reporting from the front line. With his own extensive experience of covering wars, and his personal love of opera and jazz, Clive and Lynsey Addario share stories to reveal something of the power and significance of music when working in extreme conflict situations.

Lynsey Addario is an American photojournalist who鈥檚 been covering conflict, humanitarian crises, and women鈥檚 issues around the Middle East and Africa for more than two decades. She鈥檚 taken award-winning photographs for the front pages of The New York Times and National Geographic Magazine of conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Lebanon, Darfur, South Sudan, Somalia, the DRC, Yemen, Syria, and the ongoing war in Ukraine.
