Soft music from hushed spaces ft. Kieran Brunt

Tune into the quiet details with a hushed selection of music inspired by whispers with Erland Cooper. Plus Kieran Brunt of SHARDS shares his peaceful safe haven.

Composer and musician Erland Cooper invites you into a world of hushed textures and fragile sounds, with musical selections inspired by whispers and moments where music speaks softly, yet deeply. We’ll hear songs from Hinako Omori, VOCES8 and Keeley Forsyth that echo through the solitude.
