The thinking behind the series

Episode six is a special short episode made in response to emails we’ve received asking about the motivating factors behind the making of A land without music?

Those who have heard earlier episodes will be aware that we believe music in the UK is in poor and declining health. In this episode we look at the evidence that led us to have these concerns.
