Phoning it in

Experimental music and art pieces containing phone calls. Verity Sharp hangs on the telephone with Captain Beefheart and Captain Maurice Seddon.

Telephone calls and remote communications are all the rage in these strange days of social isolation. Therefore tonight鈥檚 programme makes a virtue of this communication limitation by indulging in the best experimental tracks, live recordings, and art pieces that feature phone calls.

Join Verity Sharp as she imagines hanging out on the telephone with Laurie Anderson, Yoko Ono, Captain Beefheart, Captain Maurice Seddon and many more.

Produced by Jack Howson and Katie Callin.
