Elizabeth Alker with music by Keeley Forsyth, Agnes Obel, Daniel Avery and Caroline Shaw. Plus Edmund Finnis, and an exclusive preview of Jasdeep Singh Degun's new sitar concerto. Elizabeth celebrates Caroline Shaw's Grammy Award and features Daniel Avery's new collaboration with Alessandro Cortini - both Caroline and Daniel will be performing live with the 成人快手 Concert Orchestra at Unclassified Live in April. Plus gloriously windswept vocals from singer songwriter (and actor) Keeley Forsyth's new album Debris, instrumentals to give an insomniac's heart wings from Agnes Obel's forthcoming album Myopia, and the first radio play for a moving track from Jasdeep Singh Degun's brand new sitar concerto with the Orchestra of Opera North - "Veer" is dedicated to Jasdeep's cousin, who took his own life when he was only 25.
