Welcome to the latest episode of Harmonious World, in which I interview musicians about how their music helps make the world more harmonious.
This episode features an extended conversation with my dear friend Michael Shapiro, who I wouldn't know if it wasn't for an introduction from Crossover Media's Amanda back at the start of Harmonious World. As well as our previous two interviews in 2020 and 2021, I have spent time with Michael in Milan (where his Frankenstein score was performed) and several times in London. His musical passion, intellect and wit come across - I hope - in this latest episode.
Alongside our conversation, you can hear extracts from Michael's flute concerto In The Light Of The Sun , performed by my previous guest Stathis Karapanos.Get in touch to let me know what you think!

This was my second conversation with Danae Xanthe Vlasse, a composer who is simply extraordinary. Her album Mythologies won a Grammy in 2022 and now Mythologies II is out, featuring the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, sopranos Sangeeta Kaur and Hila Plitmann, tenor Omar Najmi and pianist Robert Thies.
I was so fortunate in being present at Abbey Road studios when some of this album was recorded, thanks to Danae and Maestro Michael Shapiro, my dear friend who invited me along to see him conduct this magnificent music.
This conversation was a delight to record and I'm looking forward to travelling to New York at some point to see Danae again and hopefully experience this music on stage.
