Sound World Sounds

We will shortly be launching Sound World Sounds a new, regular feature in which leading music professionals (often with a Sound World connection) talk briefly about music that they love. Check in here every month (or look for #SoundWorldSounds on social media) for everything from exciting, vibrant new sound worlds to fresh perspectives and personal reflections on repertoire classics.

Starting this month with Roxanna Panufnik
