Scottish composer Erland Cooper sits at the helm for this new series of Ultimate Calm, steering us into calm waters with musical selections close to his heart, guided by the elemental, the natural world and his experiences growing up in Orkney. For this maiden voyage, he starts in the realm of sleep and dreams, with a selection of soporific sounds. There’ll be music by Satoshi Park, Ganavya and Cerys Hafana, as well as an exclusive unreleased piece by Erland himself, written for his dog, Mirage Morricone. In every episode of Ultimate Calm, we travel to the musical safe haven of a special guest. We begin this series with the writer Ian Rankin, who transports us to a wharf on a misty early morning, evoked by one of his favourite jazz records.
