Peter Broderick

Peter Broderick talks to Stuart about his peaceful and contemplative music, plus the featured album is Krystof Komeda's Astigmatic.

Stuart Maconie travels to the furthest flung corners of left-field music to create a playlist that makes you rock back on your heels with the sounds of newness and difference. American composer Peter Broderick talks about his musical life so far, including joining the band Efterklang after befriending them on MySpace, driving through Europe with Nils Frahm and making music which brings together folk, contemporary classical in arrangements that showcase his multi-instrumental talents.

The featured album comes from pianist and bandleader Krystof Komeda and his 1965 record Astigmatic which forged the identity of European jazz, as opposed to the previously dominant American jazz. Combining free improvisation, late romantic classical and aleatoric music it features a host of luminaries including Thomas Stanko on trumpet and Rune Carlson on drums and has been described as "one of the finest jazz albums made in Europe" by The Penguin Jazz Guide.

Also in the show new music from Norwegian singer Torun Eriksen, Brazilian experimental samba star Elza Soares and techno producer Max Cooper.
