Horn player Naomi Atherton with a carol, a cornetto and a car journey
Naomi Atherton reveals familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light, featuring a witty wind octet by Franz Krommer and a Balkan brass band.
Horn player Naomi Atherton discovers music which has made her think about her instrument in a different way, from a piece by Schumann for cello and piano to an oboe concerto by Richard Strauss.
There’s also an ancient carol which was written just down the road from where she lives, plus a piece inspired by a noisy car journey featuring jangling keys and tapping on the dashboard.
Naomi also explores the way she experiences music in textures and compares this to the colours seen by musicians with synesthesia.
A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
