Broadcast on RTE LyricFM

January 17, 2015 3:24 pm Published by

One of my WWI pieces has just received its first broadcast, on a show called The Blue of the Night on RTE Lyric FM: http://www.rte.ie/radio/utils/radioplayer/rteradioweb.html…

It’s a really interesting and eclectic radio show. My piece starts at 02:03:00 and is called ‘The Empty Page’. It is an imagined conversation between Wilfred Owen and his mother Susan, using extracts from Wilfred’s many letters home. The metaphor of the empty page signifies his tragic death just a week before the Armistice.

The performers are Susanna Fairbairn, Chris Watson, and The Fournier Trio.
