Composer and animateur Paul Rissmann with a musical spice garden

Composer and animateur Paul Rissmann opens up a colourful selection of music from the inside - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Composer, presenter and animateur Paul Rissmann is passionate about musical education and his enthusiasm for inspiring sounds finds him choosing melancholic yet hopeful music by Anna Clyne, an exhilaratingly powerful piano concerto by Prokofiev, and a sparkling piece for violin and piano by William Grant Still.

Paul also uncovers two famous pieces that have been radically re-imagined: Maurice Ravel鈥檚 string quartet arranged for saxophones and Mussorgsky鈥檚 Pictures at an Exhibition reworked for an urban dance group.

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
