Bright as Fire

on BBC Radio 3

Composer and pianist
Mike Westbrook talks to Geoffrey Norris in the second of eight programmes. Though he had a regular sextet in the late sixties, it was
Westbrook's Concert Band that his record company wanted to record. After the albums Release and Marching Song, he wrote the even more ambitious
Metropolis, which includes sections of collective improvisation.
