Harmonious World
Harmonious World consists of interviews with great musicians, composers and producers across all genres, from jazz to classical, from folk to rock and everything in between. I’m a writer, musician and podcaster and this all started with a Quincy Jones quote I came across by chance during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown: “Imagine what a harmonious world it could be if every single person, both young and old, shared a little of what he is good at doing." I'm so pleased to have interviewed - and will continue to interview - so many great musicians from around the world.

Sean Friar and Michael Mizrahi
Composer Sean Friar and Michael Mizrahi from NOW Ensemble joined me to talk about their new collaboration on Before and After.
This latest album is about enormous ideas and our own small place in the larger rhythm of the world, yet it is musically intimate. NOW Ensemble features flute, clarinet, double bass, piano and electric guitar and our conversation includes interesting debate about the genre of this music - and whether genre matters anyway.
Thanks to Sean, Michael and NOW Ensemble for allowing me to use clips from the album alongside our conversation.

Don't forget the Quincy Jones quote that sums up why I do this: "Imagine what a harmonious world it would be if every single person, both young and old, shared a little of what he is good at doing."
