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.

An interview with flautist Stathis Karapanos
Welcome to the latest episode of Harmonious World, in which I interview musicians about how their music helps make the world more harmonious.
For this episode, I interviewed flautist Stathis Karapanos, who has new music out now - both Hindemith's Complete Works for Flute and also Michael Shapiro's sublime 'In the Light of the Sun' concerto for flute and orchestra, recorded with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at Abbey Road studios earlier this year.
Thanks to Stathis for allowing me to share clips from his recordings of 'Echo' for Flute and Piano, 'Enthusiasm' for Flute and Viola and 'Abundskonzert Nr2' 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."
