This episode explores the relationship between poetry and music. Malcolm Atkins talks about setting text to music and includes performances of Blake, Hopkins and contemporary poets. He finishes with Lament for Gaza, put together by the Confluence Collective. We have an extract from Sarah Acton's long poem, Book of the Exe, accompanied by musician, Emma Welton. Diana Sanders curates a selection of poems, music and soundscape from 'I Am Nature'. In addition, there are poems which are not accompanied by music but which are, in different ways, concerned with music.
