Blend and colour with harpist Heidi Krutzen

Heidi Krutzen opens up a selection of classical music from her point of view as a harpist - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Heidi Krutzen is Principal Harp of the Philharmonia Orchestra, as well as a member of several chamber groups including her duo COULOIR and Trio Verlaine. Today, from her own home, Heidi reveals music that combines the harp with some unusual combinations of other instruments - from Arnold Bax鈥檚 Elegiac Trio, to Nico Muhly鈥檚 Clear Music. She also finds fearless piano playing by Alexander Horowitz in a live performance of an Etude by Scriabin, and uncovers a string sound that speaks to our core. Plus, music by a composer Heidi wishes had been written for the harp.

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
