Roadtrip takes listeners on a journey across America with a programme that juxtaposes core American compositions by John Adams, Charles Ives and Aaron Copland with specially commissioned folk/pop-song arrangements by young American composer Nico Muhly, including Paul Simon’s hit ‘Hearts and Bones’. The collaborations – with Muhly and American singer-songwriter guest soloists Sam Amidon and Dawn Landes – are inspired and refreshing; words that have become synonymous with this dynamic British ensemble. Watch a short video introduction to the project below.
