Verse and Verse

Verse and Verse is a new podcast where I will be discussing the musical world in and around pieces of classic literature. We will be exploring the musical background of favourite authors, sometimes delving into personal accounts and correspondence. I also look into descriptions of music and soundscapes within the novels themselves before discussing works of music they have inspired; film scores, operas, pop hits and more!
