Music sound engineering by Myles Eastwood
Produced by David Trippett
Centred on the legacy of Professor Alexander Goehr, the documentary asks former Faculty of Music staff and students what it was like to study music in the shadow of Arnold Schoenberg and Edward Dent. It narrates the journey of the Music Tripos from the rigorous, skills-based focus of the 1940s to the rich and diverse outlook of the present: Gospel with countertenors, global opera, music in digital culture, historical reconstructions of 19th-century opera, Boethius, and more. It gives unprecedented personal insights, too, into the experience of some major musical figures at Cambridge, its people and environs.
