ARPA Productions are now making podcasts with a view to producing broadcast radio about new music. The first project in this new strand was a pilot podcast broadcast on ResonanceFM in June 2015 (you can hear the broadcast here). This podcast sought to explain the ideas behind Arthur Keegan-Bole's piece Nocturne.
Pod Academy picked up the idea and commissioned a five part series with the remit described below:
"This podcast is the second in our series on new concert music. New music can be unfamiliar and challenging – this series, written and presented by composer Arthur Keegan-Bole, is designed to present new music in a non-scary way or at least to explain that composers are making logical music – not trying to make weird, ‘difficult’ music to confound the listener."
You can find the series at the link below. These early explorations are promising and it is hoped producing radio like this will further ARPA Production's remit of bringing enjoyment of contemporary music to more people.
