In Episode 55, Ella chats with Michael Beek: writer, journalist, and Director of the London Soundtrack Festival. Michael has worked in and around film and TV music for more than twenty years, interviewing some of the industry’s most important composers, writing album sleeve notes for major labels and programme notes for the likes of the BBC Proms and the Royal Albert Hall. He was previously BBC Music Magazine's Reviews Editor and Editor of musicfromthemovies.com. Ahead of his first London Soundtrack Festival - now in its second year - he talks about 'accidentally' building a career from his greatest passion, meeting and interviewing John Williams, the flourishing of film music concerts, and mistakes that still make him cringe many years later...
The London Soundtrack Festival is the capital’s very first festival dedicated to celebrating the music of film, TV and games. Running from 9-12 April, this year's festival takes place in the city's biggest cultural venues - the Barbican, Cadogan Hall, Central Hall Westminster - with a fantastic line-up of talent including David Arnold, Rachel Portman, John Lunn and Julian Nott.
