LET'S GET ANGRY!

Music鈥檚 power to express and exorcise anger has taken composers, performers, and listeners, to the Dark Side of music鈥檚 profoundly emotional powers. How do you make the sounds of anger? We鈥檒l scream like heavy metal virtuosos and operatic divas, we鈥檒l explore the harmonies of anger through the sounds of the angriest classical music over the centuries, and we鈥檒l hear what happens in our brains when we just have to express our vexatious impulses.

But while there鈥檚 a cathartic feeling of release once we鈥檝e got over the musical, emotional, and hormonal expression of angriness, music itself can also make us angry. It makes Tom Service angry: when you鈥檙e on hold on that phone-call to the gas-board, when that TV theme or YouTube meme gets stuck in your head and just won鈥檛 budge: music can make us as exquisitely cross as any other fact of our lives.

We'll get anger management advice from Commander-In-Chief, Shred guitarist Berit Hagen (angry), composer Richard Sisson (very angry) and Professor of Black Studies Kehinde Andrews (seething).

From the sounds of anger to anger-inducing ear-worm: join us in an emotionally exorcising edition of The Listening Service. You鈥檒l feel better. And if you don't you can get very angry with us!
