Stuart Maconie chats to contemporary classical composer and electronic artist Anna Meredith about her new record, Varmints, and working with the Museum of Science and Industry.

Stuart chats to Anna Meredith about her new record Varmints and working with the Museum of Science and Industry to encourage emerging female artists. Anna's career began in modern classical music, she is a former composer in residence at the 成人快手 Scottish Symphony Orchestra and has judged the Young Musician Of The Year competition. Since 2012 she has released adventurous electronic music that draws from elements of sci-fi iconography, soundtracks and club DJs. Referred to as "silly, striking and smart" by the Guardian, Varmints brings her two musical worlds closer together combining orchestral instrumentation with synthesised sounds.
